REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 27, § 704A(g).
In subsections (a), (b), and (d) of this section, the references to "diminution

"gained time" and "time gained" for consistency within this subtitle. See
also § 3-709 of this article.
In subsection (a) of this section, the reference to the managing official's
authority to "revoke" diminution credits is substituted for the former
reference to the managing official's authority to "deduct" diminution
credits for clarity and consistency with § 3-709(a) of this article.
Correspondingly, in subsection (b) of this section, the reference to the
"revocation" of diminution credits is substituted for the former reference to
the "deduction" of diminution credits.
Also in subsection (a) of this section, the reference to the authority to
revoke "some or" all of the diminution credits awarded for good conduct is
added to state expressly that which was only implied in the former
reference to the authority to revoke "all" of the diminution credits awarded
