In subsection (b) of this section, the reference to the "county" is substituted
for the former reference to the "local jurisdiction" for consistency within
this subtitle.

The Correctional Services Article Review Committee notes, for
consideration by the General Assembly, that subsection (b) of this section
does not seem to apply to regional centers or to centers that are operated
by the State by reason of default. The General Assembly may wish to
amend this provision to require, in the case of a regional center, that the
advisory function, composition, and appointment of members be in
accordance with the agreement between the counties or be determined by
the county in which the center is located. The General Assembly may also
wish to amend this provision to require, in the case of a State-operated
center, that the advisory function, composition, and appointment of
members be determined by the State.
