(1) ESTABLISH A REASONABLE PER DIEM RATE FOR THE FOOD,
LODGING, AND CLOTHING OF AN INMATE; AND
(2) DESIGNATE THE WARDEN OF THE QUEEN ANNE'S COUNTY JAIL AS
THE AGENT TO COLLECT THE COSTS AND PAYMENTS SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION.
REVISOR'S NOTE: Subsection (a), of this section is new language added to
clarify that this section applies only in Queen Anne's County.
Subsections (b) and (c) of this section are new language derived without
substantive change from former Art. 27, § 639A.
In subsection (b) of this section, the reference to inmates who are
"confined" in the Queen Anne's County Jail is substituted for the former
reference to inmates who are "incarcerated" in that facility for consistency
throughout this article. See General Revisor's Note to this article.
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the phrase "while in the jail", which
formerly modified the reference to "the reasonable cost of their own food,
lodging, and clothing", is deleted as unnecessary in light of the reference in
the introductory language of this subsection to an inmate "[w]hile confined
in the Queen Anne's County Jail".
The Correctional Services Article Review Committee notes, for
consideration by the General Assembly, that subsection (b) of this section
sets forth rules governing the disposition of an inmate's earnings. The
Committee further notes that there are significant inconsistencies
throughout this article in statutory provisions governing the disposition of
an inmate's earnings in different contexts. See, e.g., §§ 3-804, 3-807(e)(1),
9-504(d), 9-512(b), 11-319(b), 11-407(b), 11-604, 11-703(d)(4), 11-704(d),
11-705(i), 11-706(b)(5), 11-707(b), 11-708(b)(7), 11-711(g), 11-712(c)(5),
11-714(c)(4), 11-715(e), 11-716(g), 11-717(e), 11-718(e), 11-722(b),
11-724(g), and 11-725(b) of this article and accompanying Revisor's Notes.
The General Assembly may wish to examine all of the relevant provisions
and determine whether they should be changed to reflect a more consistent
policy in this area.
In subsection (c)(1) of this section, the reference to "an inmate", is added to
state expressly that which was only implied under the former law.
