SF 1626 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Department of Corrections licensed facilities responsibilities clarification provisions

This bill clarifies responsibilities for Minnesota's licensed local correctional facilities. It requires facility administrators to provide all necessary data to the Department of Corrections for reviewing critical incidents, emergencies, or unusual occurrences (Section 3.22-3.23). It also mandates that the Department's inspection unit report directly to a division head outside the correctional institutions division (Section 2.24). The changes apply to all facilities licensed to detain adults or juveniles under state correctional oversight, ensuring clearer accountability and data access for oversight purposes. The bill amends specific sections of Minnesota Statutes 2024 related to facility licensing and inspections.
