An Act relative to employment of attorneys by county retirement boards

This bill amends Massachusetts law to allow county retirement boards to hire attorneys who are currently serving as members of those boards. Previously, the rules prohibited board members from being employed as attorneys by the systems they oversee. By removing this restriction, the legislation permits individuals to hold dual roles as both a board member and an attorney for the retirement system. The change directly affects county retirement boards and the attorneys they employ, enabling them to hire staff without the previous conflict of interest limitation.
