AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 6 of the General Laws to establish a policy surcharge on private passenger automobile insurance policies in Massachusetts. The surcharge will fund annual in-service specialized and statutorily-mandated training programs conducted by the Municipal Police Training Committee for veteran and reserve municipal police officers, as well as officers employed by state agencies who exercise police powers. At least 25% of the surcharge funds will be transferred to the Department of Mental Health to support police departments in responding to mental health crises, including Crisis Intervention Team training. The bill also allows the Municipal Police Training Committee and the Department of Mental Health to use the surcharge funds to develop a statewide Institute on Community Policing and Behavioral Health.
