The retirement commission consists of five retirement commissioners, one of whom is required to be the executive head of a state institution, one the executive head of a state department, and one a subordinate employee in state service. Each commissioner serves for a term of four years from the first day of July following his appointment by the governor. (Sections 5-155(a) and 5-155(b) of the General Statutes.) The chairman, vice-chairman, and secretary of the retirement commission are elected by the members of the commission.
