IDAHO COMMISSION OF PARDONS AND PAROLE – Amends existing law to revise a provision regarding the compensation of commissioners.
H 156 amends Idaho Code § 20-1002 to update compensation for members of the Idaho Commission of Pardons and Parole. It specifies that commissioners receive $300 per day for attending quarterly meetings held separately from hearings, and $400 per day when conducting parole, pardon, or related hearings. The bill affects the seven commissioners appointed by the governor, changing their daily payment rates for specific duties while maintaining existing expense reimbursement rules. This is a procedural adjustment to compensation rates, not a substantive change to parole or pardon procedures.
