The bill titled "An Act authorizing the state board of retirement board to provide for the payment of retirement benefits to Dale R. Kiley" seeks to amend the current retirement benefits arrangement for retired state trooper Dale R. Kiley. Specifically, the bill authorizes the state board of retirement to remove Karen K. Kiley as the surviving spouse beneficiary of Dale R. Kiley's retirement pension benefits. This change is made notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary.

In addition to the removal of Karen K. Kiley as a beneficiary, the bill stipulates that Dale R. Kiley will be designated as the sole beneficiary of his retirement pension benefits. This adjustment aligns with option (a) of subdivision (2) of section 12 of chapter 32 of the General Laws, effectively altering the current beneficiary designation to ensure that Dale R. Kiley receives his full retirement benefits without the previous spousal designation.
