Police directive pending enactment
Effective date
Description of change

The Bureau reviewed the four mental health-related directives as part of the scheduled review process. Neither the Court Monitor, nor the Department of Justice recommended changes, and the Bureau received limited feedback during the universal review periods. As a result, the Bureau made few revisions to the existing policies.
