An Act to amend the Corrections and Conditional Release Act
This enactment amends the Corrections and Conditional Release Act to, among other things, (a) require that, if a person who is sentenced, transferred or committed to a penitentiary has disabling mental health issues, they will be transferred to a hospital; (b) ensure that a person may only be confined in a structured intervention unit for longer than 48 hours on an order of a superior court; (c) allow for the provision of correctional services and plans for release and reintegration into the community to persons from disadvantaged or minority populations by community groups and other similar support services; and (d) allow for persons who are sentenced to a period of incarceration or parole ineligibility to apply to the court that imposed that sentence for a reduction if there has been unfairness in the administration of their sentence.
