Requiring correctional health services to provide reports regarding people in custody who have been ordered to undergo a court-ordered forensic psychiatric examination.

This bill would require the Department of Correction to issue quarterly public reports on people in custody who have been ordered to undergo a forensic psychiatric examination pursuant to Section 730 of the New York Criminal Procedure Law. Among other things, information in these reports would include the number of people in custody who have been ordered to undergo a forensic psychiatric examination, the housing area type where these individuals are being detained, and the average length of time a person deemed unfit to stand trial spends in custody before being discharged to an appropriate institution for competency restoration.
