This Board makes recommendations for future status and treatment of each patient and is authorized to grant leaves or paroles to patients when it is determined that society and the patient would benefit from such status. This Board sets the terms and conditions of any such leave or parole, and may revoke same at any time. In addition, this Board makes recommendations to the Court of proper jurisdiction for the termination of the indeterminate sentence of defective delinquents when it believes that the patient is sufficiently improved to warrant his unconditional release from cus- tody. The Institution has a rated capacity of 600 patients. The popula- tion on July 1, 1967, was 499 (Code 1957. 1965 Repl. Vol., Art. 31B; Art. 27, sec. 706A). |
