In subsection (c)(2) of this section, the reference to the Bertillon "method"
is added to state expressly that which was formerly only implied in the
reference to "Bertillon".

In subsections (d)(1), (e)(5) and (12), (f)(1) and (2), and the introductory
language of (e) of this section, the references to "unit" and "units" are
substituted for the former references to "agency" and "agencies",
respectively, for consistency throughout this article. See General Revisor's
Note to this article.

In subsection (d)(1)(ii) of this section, the reference to a request "of the
Institution" is added to state expressly that which was formerly only
implied in the law, i.e., the Patuxent Institution is responsible for making
the request for information.

In subsections (e)(5), (6)(ii), (8), and (12) and (f) of this section, the
references to the "record[s], report[s], or" information are added to state
expressly that which was formerly only implied in the references to
"information" and for consistency with the introductory language of
subsection (e) of this section.

In subsection (e)(6) of this section, the former reference to a "district, or
territory of the United States" is deleted as unnecessary in light of the

The Correctional Services Article Review Committee notes, for
consideration by the General Assembly, that subsection (e)(6) of this
section allows the Patuxent Institution to disclose an inmate's record to a
state or federal correctional official or probation officer. The General
Assembly may wish to expand the scope of this provision to allow the same
type of disclosure to a local correctional official or probation officer. This
change would be consistent with subsection (e)(5) of this section, which
allows the Patuxent Institution to disclose an inmate's record to a local law
enforcement officer under certain circumstances.

In subsection (e)(7) of this section, the former reference to the Attorney
General "of Maryland" is deleted as implicit in the reference to "the
Attorney General".

"Office" is substituted for the former obsolete reference to the Inmate
Grievance "Commission". See Ch. 251, Acts of 1991.

In subsection (e)(9) of this section, the reference to the Division of
"Rehabilitation Services" is substituted for the former obsolete reference to
the Division of "Vocational Rehabilitation". See Ch. 42, Acts of 1992.

In subsection (e)(10) of this section, the former reference to disclosing
medical records "when [they) are required" is deleted as implicit in the
reference to disclosing medical records "to the extent necessary to ensure
proper medical treatment".
