AI Summary

This bill provides a lifetime monthly allowance to Katherine M. McGuinness, the surviving spouse of former Massachusetts State Police officer James T. McGuinness. The State Retirement Board will pay her the amount she would have received if James had elected Option (c) under Section 12 of Chapter 32 of the General Laws, which provides a survivor benefit. However, the Board will withhold a portion of the payments during the first year to account for the difference between the amount James received under Option (b) prior to his death and what he would have received under Option (c). The benefits provided under this act will be in lieu of, not in addition to, any other benefits Katherine may have received as James' beneficiary.
