The bill amends Section 36-10-9.2 of the General Laws regarding retirement benefits for members of the department of corrections. It introduces new language to specify that the section applies to correctional officers and includes the roles of "administrator of community confinement" and "home confinement coordinator" as eligible positions for retirement benefits. The bill outlines the retirement eligibility criteria based on age and years of service.

Additionally, the bill allows members who have served both as state employees and teachers to combine their service for retirement eligibility. It also provides for members who retired on or after July 1, 2012, to request adjustments to their retirement benefits based on combined service. The act is set to take effect upon passage.
