in 1951 (Chapter 467, Acts of 1951). At least an-
nually, the Board reviews the status of each in-
mate at Patuxent Institution. The Board may
grant leave or parole and, if it determines that the
individual is no longer eligible for the Institution's
programs, it may order him transferred to the ju-
risdiction of the Commissioner of Correction. If a
person has successfully completed three years pro-
bation without violation, the Board may petition
the court to suspend or vacate the remaining sen-
tence.

The Board is composed of eight members. They
include the Director and three Associate Direc-
tors of Patuxent Institution, a professor of the
University of Maryland School of Law, a profes-

The Commission on Correctional Standards was
created in 1980 to improve standards for correc-
tional facilities and programs and to ensure com-
pliance with standards for the public health, safe-
ty, and welfare (Chapter 535, Acts of 1980). The
Commission advises the Secretary regarding stan-
dards for State and local correctional facilities;
provides technical assistance to jurisdictions; au-
dits facilities to determine compliance with appli-
cable correctional standards; and determines
schedules for remedial action of jurisdictions in
noncompliance with standards. After a public
hearing, the Commission may order the closing of
a correctional facility determined to be in non-
compliance with established standards. It also re-
views and acts on appeals of staff audit reports.
