Budget Highlights

The State Commission of Correction is responsible for the regulation and oversight of State and local correctional facilities. The Commission monitors 70 State correctional facilities, 60 county jails, 16 New York City correctional facilities and 267 locally operated police department detention facilities. Resulting from legislation enacted during 1996, the Commission also has oversight of the four secure detention facilities operated by the Office of Children and Family Services. The Commission collaborates with the Division of Criminal Justice Service and the Division of Probation and Correctional Alternatives to assist localities in analyzing operational issues in local correctional facilities.

This agency is included in the Public Protection and General Government appropriation bill.

State Operations

The Executive recommends an All Funds State Operations appropriation of $2,433,000, a decrease of $96,000 or 3.8 percent from State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2003-04. The decrease is the result of adjustments made to reflect the actual costs of current programs and is also attributed to fixed cost savings.
