AI Summary
This bill amends Section 12 of Chapter 32 of the General Laws to modify the provisions related to Option (d) beneficiaries. Under the current law, a member can nominate one or more eligible beneficiaries to receive a portion of the yearly Option (c) allowance that the member would have been entitled to had they retired on the date of their death. This bill specifies that in the event multiple beneficiaries are nominated, the benefit will be calculated using the youngest beneficiary's age at the time of the member's death. Additionally, it states that upon the death of a beneficiary, the payments to the surviving beneficiaries shall remain unchanged.
