The commissioner of correction shall formulate and implement a compensation plan for correctional officers by which such officers are paid at least the average compensation of correctional officers in the southeastern United States with similar qualifications and years of service. Such plan shall be revised annually to reflect changes in the southeast average compensation. The commissioner shall report annually to the general assembly on the components and ranges in such plan. Such compensation plan shall only be implemented in years in which funds are appropriated to pay the average compensation as determined by such survey.
