REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Article
43, § 885 and the sixth sentence of § 884(b) and
the first and second sentences of (e).

In subsection (b) of this section, the phrase "at
the time and places it determines" is new
language added for clarity.

Also in subsection (b) of this section, the word
"full", which formerly modified "Commission", is
deleted as inconsistent with the quorum provision

in carrying out their responsibilities as members
of the Commission" is deleted as unnecessary in

Travel Regulations. Standard State Travel
Regulations are adopted by the Department of
Personnel with the approval of the Board of
Public Works.

In subsection (d) of this section, the former
reference to compensation is deleted as
unnecessary.

The third sentence of former Article 43, §
884(e), which stated that a majority of members
present may make decisions, is deleted as
