REORGANIZATION OF DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONAL SERVICES AS DIVISION OF

CORRECTION

[4-105.] 1.

[(a) The Division of Correction is established and continued as the same
Department of Correctional Services hitherto existing. The Division of Correction
shall be part of the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services.] The
Division of Correction shall have the powers, duties, responsibilities and functions
provided in the laws of this State for the Department of Correctional Services. All
references in [this] THE ANNOTATED Code, in any other laws of this State, or in
ordinances, resolutions, rules, regulations, legal actions, directives, or documents to
the Department of Correctional Services or the Department of Correction or the
Board of Correction, shall be deemed to mean the Division of Correction. From and
after July 1, 1970, all rights, powers, duties, obligations and functions heretofore
conferred upon or exercised by the Department of Correctional Services shall be
transferred to and be exercised by the Division of Correction, subject to the authority
of the Secretary of Public Safety and Correctional Services as set forth in [§§ 4-102,
4-103, and 4-104 of this article] THE CORRECTIONAL SERVICES' ARTICLE or
elsewhere in [this] THE ANNOTATED Code.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section formerly was Art. 41, § 4-105(a).

The first and second sentences of former Art. 41, § 4-105(a) are revised as
§ 3-201 of the Correctional Services Article.

The remainder of former Art. 41, § 4-105(a) is not retained in the Code
because the contemplated reorganization and ensuing transfers have
taken place. However, it is transferred to the Session Laws to avoid any
inadvertent substantive effect that its repeal might have.

The only changes are in style.

SECTION 5. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That Section 4-105(b) of
Article 41 - Governor - Executive and Administrative Departments of the Annotated
Code of Maryland be repealed and reenacted, with amendments, and transferred to
the Session Laws, to read as follows:

Services. The Division of Parole and Probation shall have the powers, duties,
responsibilities and functions provided in the laws of this State for the Department of
Parole and Probation. All references in this Code, in any other laws of this State, or in
ordinances, resolutions, rules, regulations, legal actions, directives, or documents to
the Department of Parole and Probation shall be deemed to mean the Division of
