The sponsor's argument

Why Joseph P. Addabbo Jr. says this is needed

There are several Police Officers who have prior service credit with the New Yok State Employee's Retirement serving as another occupation such as Correction Officers. The prior service, in most cases, cannot be credited for purposes of a police officer retirement from section 384-d, 20-year special plans. This bill would allow the officer to transfer back into the employee's retirement system and allow said officer to use all service credit, including his police service credit, if the circum- stances work.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
