Memorandum


The bill does not address 15A-8-1, which states the "powers and authority of the Regional Jail and Correctional Facility Authority Board, in relation to all functions of correctional operations, are hereby abolished, and these powers and authority are transferred to the Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation as of July 1, 2018. The Regional Jail and Correctional Facility Authority Board shall only retain the powers as now outlined in this chapter. Where reference in this code is made to the Regional Jail and Correctional Facility Authority, in relation to operations of any of the regional jails, it shall be construed to mean the Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation." With that said, 15A-8-2 says the "West Virginia Regional Jail and Correctional Facility Board is continued."
