Created by Chapter 535, Acts of 1980, the
Commission on Correctional Standards is com-
posed of eleven members. Eight are appointed by
the Governor with the advice and consent of the
Senate, and three serve ex officio. Appointed

members serve staggered terms of three years.
Appointed members include two Maryland citi-
zens who are not directly employed in the field of
corrections, one official or employee of the Com-
mission on Accreditation for Corrections or a
similar national correctional accreditation organi-
zation, one local elected official, two State gov-
ernment correctional personnel, and two local
government correctional personnel. With the ap-
proval of the Secretary of Public Safety and Cor-
rectional Services, the Commission appoints the
Executive Director.

The purpose of the Commission is to improve
the method of establishing standards for correc-
tional facilities and programs and to ensure com-
pliance with such standards in order to better
protect the health, safety, and welfare of Mary-
land's citizens. The Commission advises the Sec-
retary regarding standards for State and local
correctional facilities, which he is authorized to
adopt; provides technical assistance to jurisdic-
tions; audits facilities to determine compliance
with applicable correctional standards; and deter-
mines schedules for remedial action of jurisdic-
tions in noncompliance with certain standards. It
holds public hearings in accordance with the Ad-
ministrative Procedures Act in regard to the pos-
sible closing of a correctional facility for failure to
meet certain standards. The Commission may is-
sue orders to cease operations of correctional pro-
cedures or functions of a correctional facility
determined, after a public hearing, to be in
noncompliance with certain standards. It also re-
views and acts on appeals of staff audit reports.
The Commission is authorized to consult and co-
ordinate with national bodies promulgating cor-
rectional standards for the purpose of providing a
reasonable compatibility between State and na-
tionally established standards; consult and coop-
erate with other State agencies and local jurisdic-
tions concerning correctional standards; and
establish advisory boards.
