Action:
Update operational and supervision standards for jails and lockups
Action 653
General Information
Action Summary |
The current regulations have been in place since August 10, 1995. Since the adoption of the standards, there have been a significant number of regional jails opened. The supervision of inmates in those facilities, as well as other jails within the Commonwealth, is direct versus linear and the current standards do not address this type of supervision. Further, many facilities are being accredited through the American Correctional Association (ACA), therefore Board of Corrections standards would likewise need to conform to ACA standards. |
