Bill Summary
An Act relating to prisons and reformatories; amending 57 O.S. 2021, Section 509, as last amended by Section 2, Chapter 467, O.S.L. 2025 (57 O.S. Supp. 2025, Section 509), which relates to penal institutions; providing name for certain facility; and providing an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing Oklahoma law concerning penal institutions, specifically Section 509 of Title 57. The primary change is to update the reference for a facility purchased under a previous legislative act, replacing a specific bill number with a more general reference to "Chapter 467, O.S.L. 2025," which likely refers to the legislative session and chapter where the purchase was authorized. The bill also clarifies that the Department of Corrections is the legal successor to the Office of Management and Enterprise Services regarding penal institutions and community corrections centers, confirming the Department's administrative control over these facilities. Finally, the bill sets an effective date for these changes as November 1, 2026.
