Section 18.423 - Annual registration of law enforcement agencies; verification of officers and hours compensated; law enforcement distributions; installments; determination; minimum amount(1) The commission shall conduct an annual registration of law enforcement agencies to verify each agency's roster of full-time and part-time law enforcement officers, and the number of hours for which they were compensated for employment as law enforcement officers in the most recent elapsed calendar year. For purposes of the law enforcement distribution, the reported hours of compensation shall be capped at 2,080 hours for any individual officer.(2) As part of the annual registration, each law enforcement agency shall indicate to the commission whether it elects to receive law enforcement distributions for the current year. An agency that elects not to receive law enforcement distributions shall not receive them for the current year but must comply with all applicable requirements of this act until all previously received law enforcement distribution funds have been expended or returned as required in this act.(3) The commission shall annually distribute 60% of the Michigan justice training fund for law enforcement distributions, in 2 semiannual installments, on dates determined by the commission.(4) The law enforcement distribution shall be made on a per full-time equated basis to eligible entities based on the number of full-time equated law enforcement officers employed. For purposes of this subsection, the number of full-time equated law enforcement officers shall be determined by dividing the total number of hours reported by the eligible entity during the annual registration for which the eligible entity's full-time and part-time law enforcement officers were compensated for employment as law enforcement officers in the most recent elapsed calendar year by 2,080 hours, rounded down to the nearest whole number greater than or equal to 1.(5) If the Michigan justice training fund has sufficient funds, an eligible entity whose number of full-time equated law enforcement officers does not support a minimum annual distribution of $500.00 shall receive a minimum annual distribution of $500.00.(6) For each year, the percentage of law enforcement officers who provide direct law enforcement service receiving training under this act shall be equal to or greater than the percentage of law enforcement officers who are in full-time administrative positions receiving training under this act.Amended by 2016, Act 290,s 3, eff. 1/2/2017.1982, Act 302, Imd.
