    4  insert:
    5         Section 6. Section 950.013, Florida Statutes, is created to
    6  read:
    7         950.013 Operating jail in adjoining county.—A county may
    8  operate a jail in an adjoining county if agreed to by interlocal
    9  agreement with the county or municipality where the jail is
   10  located. The authority of the correctional officers employed by
   11  the county operating the jail is consistent with those powers of
   12  a correctional officer as defined in s. 943.10. The
   13  municipality, county, chief law enforcement officer, or
   14  designated chief correctional officer of the jurisdiction where
   15  the facility is located assumes no liability by virtue of the
   16  facility’s location within its county, and actions of the jail’s
   17  correctional officers and employees remain the responsibility of
   18  the employing county, officer, or agency. This provision does
   19  not act as a waiver of sovereign immunity or any of the
   20  procedures set forth in s. 768.28.

   31         facility’s location within their county; specifying
