S 1672 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act relative to retirement board membership

This bill amends the law governing the Massachusetts Retirement Board to clarify rules regarding conflicts of interest for its members. Specifically, it adds language to prohibit board members from receiving any financial benefit or consideration from the specific board where they serve. The change aims to ensure that members do not have personal financial ties to the entity they oversee, thereby maintaining impartiality. This provision directly affects the composition and ethical standards of the Retirement Board itself.
