REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 27, § 122A(b), as it related to contraband.

In subsections (a), (b), (c), and (e) of this section, the references to an
"individual" are substituted for the former reference to a "person" because
only a human being, and not the other entities included in the defined
term "person", can deliver, possess, deposit, or conceal contraband. See §
1-101 of this article for the definition of "person".

In subsection (d) of this section, the reference to "[a]n inmate" is added to
state expressly that which was only implied in the former law.

The Correctional Services Article Review Committee notes, for
consideration by the General Assembly, that the prohibition against receipt
of contraband set forth in subsection (d) of this section does not apply to
individuals other than inmates, i.e., aiders and abettors. If the General
Assembly intended that subsection (d) apply to aiders and abettors, it
should be amended accordingly. See also § 8-802(c) of this subtitle and
accompanying Revisor's Note.

Defined terms: "Contraband" § 8-801
