The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 405, aims to amend section 29-4 of the general statutes to establish a minimum number of sworn state police personnel that the Commissioner of Emergency Services and Public Protection is required to appoint and maintain. This legislative change is intended to enhance public safety by ensuring that the state police force is adequately staffed to meet the demands of their duties.

The bill does not specify the exact minimum number of personnel to be maintained, but it emphasizes the importance of appropriate staffing levels within the state police. By instituting this requirement, the bill seeks to address concerns regarding public safety and the effectiveness of law enforcement in the state.
