Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Assembly convened:
That chapters 166 and 170 of the general statutes be amended to permit local and regional boards of education to select which school personnel shall complete professional development and in-service training relating to the restraint and seclusion of students, in accordance with the provisions of section 10-236b of the general statutes.

To allow boards of education to determine the appropriate professionals who should be trained in the restraint and seclusion of students, rather than requiring all staff to complete such training.
