REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Article
59, § 32B.

Throughout this section, the term "administrative
head" is substituted for the references to "the
superintendent or director of the facility", to
standardize the references to this type of
position.

In subsection (b)(2) of this section, the phrases
"not be limited to" and "not limited to" are
deleted as unnecessary in light of the use of the
defined term "including".

Defined terms: "Facility" § 10-101

"Includes"/"including" § 1-101

"Release" § 10-801 "Treatment" § 10-101

10-810. REPORT OF RELEASE.

(A) REPORT REQUIRED.

EACH FACILITY SHALL GIVE THE ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT
NOTICE OF THE RELEASE OF AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS BEEN ADMITTED
TO THE FACILITY UNDER THIS TITLE.
