AN ACT CONCERNING THE USE OF BODY SCANNING MACHINES IN THE PUBLIC ENTRANCE AREAS OF CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES.

SB 199 requires the Commissioner of Correction to submit a report to the General Assembly's joint committees on corrections and appropriations about the use of body scanning machines at public entrance areas of correctional facilities. The bill does not mandate the use of these machines or change current policies, but instead establishes a reporting requirement for legislative oversight. This procedural bill directly affects the Department of Correction, which must provide this information to lawmakers by specified deadlines. The summary reflects only the bill's stated purpose: to inform the legislature about existing or planned scanner usage at facility entrances.
