Bill > S2545

This bill amends Section 36-10-9.2 of the General Laws, which outlines retirement provisions for correctional officers, by adding the administrator of community confinement and the home confinement coordinator to the list of employees eligible for these retirement benefits. Community confinement and home confinement are forms of correctional supervision where individuals are allowed to serve their sentences in the community under specific conditions, rather than in a traditional prison. By including these roles, the bill ensures that individuals holding these positions within the department of corrections are recognized for their service and can participate in the state retirement system under the same conditions as other correctional officers. The act will become effective immediately upon its passage.
