Assessment of Public Comment
The State Commission of Correction (Commission) received formal comment from the Deputy Commissioner for Legal Matters/General Counsel for the New York City Department of Correction.
1.) The comment set forth that the New York City Department of Correction did not oppose the proposed amendment, provided such amendment did not affect the Department's current practice of reporting significant events to the Commission via the “24 Hour Reports.”
Response: The proposed amendment will affect only the manner in which facilities are required to report certain incidents as mandated by the Reportable Incident Guidelines for County Correctional Facilities. As the Commission does not view such guidelines applicable to the Department, it will not affect the Department's current practice of reporting incidents to the Commission.
