S 1609 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act further regulating the retirement rights of certain employees of Plymouth County

This bill amends state law to include employees of the Plymouth County Sheriff's Department Bureau of Criminal Investigation under a specific retirement classification known as "Group 4." By adding Plymouth County to the list of eligible counties in the relevant statute, the legislation grants officers from this bureau the same retirement rights as those in Barnstable County. The change applies directly to current and future officers within the Plymouth County Bureau of Criminal Investigation. No other employees or departments are affected by this amendment.
