AI Summary

This bill amends the Executive Law to prohibit police officers from carrying or using a firearm during any phase of their official duties unless they have satisfactorily completed a course of training that meets or exceeds the minimum standards established by the Municipal Police Training Council. The bill requires such training to be provided by the officers' employers with sufficient frequency to ensure there is no impact on the officers' on-duty employment due to lack of available training. Additionally, the bill states that an officer's ability to carry a firearm while off-duty shall not be impaired by the employer's failure to provide the required training.
