     4    1.  There  shall  be  in  the department a state board of parole which
     5  shall possess the powers and duties  hereinafter  specified.  The  board
     6  shall  function  independently  of  the  department regarding all of its
     7  decision-making functions, as well as any other powers and duties speci-
     8  fied in this article, provided, however, that administrative matters  of
     9  general  applicability  within the department shall be applicable to the
    10  board. Such board shall  consist  of  not  more  than  nineteen  members
    11  appointed by the governor with the advice and consent of the senate. The
    12  board  shall  include  at  least  one member who is employed or has been
    13  employed as a member of law enforcement and at least one member who is a
    14  crime victim or a crime victim's representative as defined  in  subpara-

    16  fifty-nine-i of this article. The term of office of each member of  such
    17  board  shall be for six years; provided, however, that any member chosen
    18  to fill a vacancy occurring otherwise than by expiration of  term  shall
    19  be  appointed for the remainder of the unexpired term of the member whom
    20  he is to succeed. In the event of the inability to act  of  any  member,
    21  the  governor  may  appoint some competent informed person to act in his
    22  stead during the continuance of such disability.
    23    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
