REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from the first, second, and fourth sentences of former Art. 27, § 676
and, as it related to the Commissioner of Correction, § 692.

In subsections (a), (b), and (c) of this section, the former references to
"rules'' are deleted in light of the term "regulations". See General Revisor's
Note to this article.

Also in subsections (a), (b), and (c) of this section, the references to "units"
are substituted for the former references to "institutions", "agencies", and
"installations of ... agencies" for consistency throughout this article. See
General Revisor's Note to this article.

In subsection (a) of this section, the former requirement that regulations
be "reasonable" is deleted in light of Title 10, Subtitle 1 of the State
Government Article, which requires that regulations be adopted according
to a procedure designed to ensure reasonableness. See, e.g., SG §
10-111.1(b).

Also in subsection (a) of this section, the former reference to
"promulgating]" regulations is deleted as unnecessary in light of the
reference to "adopting]" regulations. See General Revisor's Note to this
article.

In subsection (b)(1) of this section, the former reference to violations of
discipline "in the institutions of the [Division]" is deleted as implicit in the
reference to "violations of discipline".

In subsection (b)(2) of this section, the reference to officers and "other"
employees is added to state expressly that which was only implied in the
former law, i.e., officers are a type of "employee".

The third sentence of former Art. 27, § 676, which authorized the
Commissioner to change regulations and required regulations to be "not ...
inconsistent" with law, is deleted. Section 10-113 of the State Government
