Ch. 290

LAWS OF MARYLAND

(vi) Persons confined in "compact institutions"
pursuant to the terms of this compact shall at all times be
subject to the jurisdiction of the sending state and may at any
time be removed from said "compact institution" for transfer to
an appropriate institution within the sending state, for return
to probation or parole, for discharge, or for any purpose
permitted by the laws of the sending state.

(vii) All persons who may be confined in a "compact
institution" pursuant to the provisions of this amendment shall
be treated in a reasonable and humane manner. The fact of
confinement or reconfinement in a receiving state shall not
deprive any person so confined or reconfined of any rights which
said person would have had if confined or reconfined in an
appropriate institution of the sending state; nor shall any
agreement to submit to confinement or reconfinement pursuant to
the terms of this amendment be construed as a waiver of any
rights which the delinquent would have had if he had been
confined or reconfined in any appropriate institution of the
sending state except that the hearing or hearings, if any, to
which a parolee, probationer, escapee, or absconder may be
entitled (prior to confinement or reconfinement) by the laws of
the sending state may be had before the appropriate judicial or
administrative officers of the receiving state. In this event,
said judicial or administrative officers shall act as agents of
the sending state after consultation with appropriate officers of
the sending state.

(viii) Any receiving state incurring costs or other
expenses under this amendment shall be reimbursed in the amount
of such costs or other expenses by the sending state unless the
states concerned shall specifically otherwise agree. Any two or
more states party to this amendment may enter into supplementary
agreements determining a different allocation of costs as among
themselves.

(ix) This amendment shall take initial effect when
entered into by any two or more states party to the compact and
shall be effective as to those states which have specifically
enacted this amendment. Rules and regulations necessary to
effectuate the terms of this amendment may be promulgated by the
appropriate officers of those states which have enacted this
amendment.

Juveniles, the Governor shall designate a Compact Administrator,
