Bill > S03322

This bill creates the New York State Commission on Sex Offender Supervision and Management, a temporary 13-member commission tasked with examining and evaluating the effectiveness of programs involving sex offenders released from state and local correctional facilities. The commission will investigate factors that impact the risk of recidivism and lead to the concentration of sex offenders in certain residential areas, analyze existing policies and practices, and compare them to other states and the federal government. The commission will make recommendations for legislative action to the governor, state senate, and assembly within one year of the bill's effective date.
