Senate Bill 248 (Substitute S-2 as reported) Sponsor: Senator Dianne Byrum Committee: Local, Urban and State Affairs

CONTENT

The bill would amend the Judges Retirement Act to specify that a retirement system established under the Act would be subject to the "Regulation of Early Retirement Benefits Act", as proposed in Senate Bill 658. The bill is tie-barred to Senate Bill 658.

Proposed MCL 38.2501a                                                                   Legislative Analyst: L. Arasim

FISCAL IMPACT

The bill would have no fiscal impact on State or local government. Normal retirement benefits are prefunded; therefore, the funds necessary to pay the normal retirement benefits have been paid in the past and thus require no additional State or local appropriations.

Date Completed: 11-7-95                                                                      Fiscal Analyst: J. Carrasco
