AN ACT CONCERNING CLARIFICATION OF THE EARNED RISK REDUCTION CREDIT PROGRAM.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Assembly convened:
That section 18-98e of the general statutes be amended to clarify that persons sentenced for a violation of section 53a-54a, 53a-54b, 53a-54c, 53a-54d, 53a-70a or 53a-100aa are prohibited from earning any risk reduction credits during the period of time that the inmate is sentenced for those enumerated crimes.

To ensure that inmates sentenced for serious crimes do not receive any risk reduction credits while incarcerated for those crimes regardless of whether they are serving a concurrent sentence for other offenses.
