Bill Summary

Relative to retirement systems and pensions for correctional officers. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill modifies Section 94 of Chapter 32 of the Massachusetts General Laws, which appears to relate to retirement systems for correctional officers. Specifically, the bill changes the language describing the nature of interactions between correctional officers and individuals under their supervision. The existing law previously used the phrase "the care, supervision or custody of" when describing an officer's role, and this bill replaces that language with the term "contact with". While the exact implications are not fully clear from the text, this change could potentially broaden the definition of interactions that qualify for certain retirement or pension benefits for correctional officers. The modification seems subtle but might have important legal or administrative consequences for how correctional officer retirement systems are interpreted and applied.
