AI Summary

This bill aims to establish a task force to review the feasibility and effectiveness of creating a Massachusetts Assault Review Board. The task force would investigate ways in which the proposed board could help colleges and universities increase the efficiency and robustness of their response to on-campus assaults, create a fair and prompt system to adjudicate complaints, and maintain a database of best practice protocols and policy recommendations related to campus safety. The task force would then make legislative recommendations for implementing the board, including its membership, responsibilities, and necessary support staff. The bill also provides a definition of "Affirmative Consent" to be included in the state's General Laws.
