The sponsor's argument

Why Jeremy Cooney says this is needed

Captain Christopher R. Fay was hired to work in the Monroe County Jail on August 26, 1991. On May 25, 1998, he was transferred to the Road Patrol Division. For reasons not ascribable to his own negligence, he should have been placed into Article 14B Section 553, but retirement was never transferred over from the jail retirement to Article 146 Section 553. In 2002 he was made aware that we were still in the jail retire- ment. At that time, he was told we could not be switched over. This bill allows Captain Fay the option to join this retirement plan to rectify this error.

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.
