Relates to an annual report of department statistics

This bill requires New York's Department of Corrections to submit an annual report by March 31 each year (starting in 2026) to state legislative leaders and specific committee chairs. The report must detail every death of an incarcerated individual in state facilities, including cause of death, personal details (age, race, gender), circumstances, and an analysis of mortality trends compared to historical data. For deaths resulting from suicide or other specified causes, the department must also provide a preliminary report within seven days and a final report after the investigation concludes. This establishes a standardized process for transparency and data collection on mortality in correctional facilities.
