Chair outlined SB60, which would require the Department of Corrections to check the National Crime Information Center for outstanding warrants at intake and at specific decision points (work release, parole consideration, and 90 days before release) and, in certain circumstances, direct the department to serve warrants.
Senators questioned whether the department already conducts similar checks in practice; some members recalled cases where transfers occurred when local warrants were identified. Committee members expressed no strong opposition to the bill as described and moved it forward with a favorable report.
The transcript records the committee disposition but does not include implementation details or fiscal estimates for DOC operations.
