The bill amends Title 53 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to include a new subsection regarding the automatic certification of police officers at Fort Indiantown Gap. Specifically, it establishes criteria for installation police officers to maintain their certification, which includes satisfactorily completing basic educational and training requirements, fulfilling the minimum in-service training hours set by the commission, and having either an active certification or a previously lapsed certification that expired within the last two years, provided there has been no lapse in service.

This amendment aims to ensure that police officers at Fort Indiantown Gap meet specific standards for certification, thereby enhancing the qualifications and accountability of law enforcement personnel at this military installation. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
