authorizing the director of the police standards and training council to detail law enforcement training specialists employed by the council for law enforcement and crowd control services and relative to disability retirement benefits.
HB 778 allows the director of the Police Standards and Training Council to assign council-employed law enforcement training specialists to provide direct services to police departments for training and crowd control. It also includes provisions related to disability retirement benefits for affected personnel. The bill's key mechanism is enabling the council director to reassign existing staff to support local law enforcement operations without creating new positions. This administrative change primarily affects the Police Standards and Training Council and the law enforcement agencies receiving these services.
