Title of bill
An act to amend the executive law, in relation to the expenses of taking persons into custody after their violation of the conditions of presumptive release, parole, conditional release or post-release supervision
Purpose
To provide officials with the appropriate expenses in relation to maintaining persons who have been taken into custody but not accepted into custody by the commissioner of correctional services.
Summary of provisions
Provides local governments maintaining persons who have been taken into custody and who have not been accepted into custody by the commissioner of correctional services within five days of receipt of written notification by the department of correctional services from the appropriate local official that such official is prepared to transport such person to the facility designated by such department, and shall be paid actual per day per capita cost of maintaining custody of such persons.
Justification
The cost of maintaining persons taken into custody, but not yet accepted into custody by the commissioner of correctional services by the State of New York, is the responsibility of the State and such cost shall not be placed upon the local officials holding or transporting such persons. Without proper funding, an unfunded mandate is created with the ensuing cost being placed upon local officials. Under the provisions of this legislation funding will be granted to such local officials at a standardized per day per capita rate.
