Bill Summary
Relative to the membership of the Parole Board and reporting requirements. The Judiciary.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the rules for the Parole Board and its reporting requirements, aiming to clarify leadership succession and enhance public safety notifications. Specifically, it changes how a temporary chairman is selected for the Parole Board, stipulating that the member with the longest tenure will now assume the role during the chairman's absence or disability, rather than the governor making the designation. The bill also adds "private employment" to a list of items related to a parolee's status, though the exact implication of this addition is not fully detailed in the provided text. Furthermore, it strengthens reporting requirements for parole officers by mandating that they must include the parolee's primary and any secondary residence addresses and, crucially, must notify the state police, the local police department where the parolee will reside, and the relevant district court in writing at least 24 hours after the parolee begins any employment, detailing their new address.
