change from former Art. 27, § 721.

In subsection (a) of this section, the reference to "a certification required
under § 9-508 of this subtitle" is substituted for the former reference to
"such information" for clarity.

Also in subsection (a) of this section, the former phrase "from time to time"
is deleted as surplusage.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 27, § 722.

In subsection (a) of this section, the reference to the "governing body of a
county" is substituted for the former reference to the "county
commissioners of any county" and the reference to "municipal corporation"
is substituted for the former reference to "town or city" for consistency
within this subtitle. See § 9-508(b) and the accompanying Revisor's Note.

Also in subsection (a) of this section, the former reference to the governing
body of a city "other than Baltimore City" is deleted in light of the
exclusion of Baltimore City from the application of this section under §
9-507(a) of this subtitle.

Also in subsection (a) of this section, the former phrase "from time to time"
is deleted as surplusage.

In subsection (b) of this section, the reference to counties and municipal
corporations "requesting inmates under subsection (a) of this section" is
substituted for the former reference to counties and cities "so applying as
aforesaid" for clarity.
