AI Summary

This bill aims to clarify and improve consistency in the data collection and reporting standards for the Justice Reinvestment Oversight Board (JROB). It requires criminal justice agencies, such as the Department of Correction, county jails, and district attorneys, to use a unique statewide identification number for each person entering the criminal justice system and to report detailed data on their populations, including offense information, demographic details, and outcomes like recidivism rates. The bill also mandates the standardization of racial and ethnic data reporting to facilitate assessments of the composition of the state's criminal justice population. The JROB will be responsible for reviewing agency compliance with these new data collection and reporting requirements on a quarterly basis, and providing an annual report to the legislature.
