REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 41, § 4-201(a)(l) and (d)(1) through (5), (8), (12),
(13), (14), and (16).

In the introductory language of this section, the former references to the
Commission's "authority" and "responsibility" are deleted as surplusage in
light of the synonymous reference to the "powers" and "duties" of the
Commission.

In item (1) of this section, the former reference to "present existing"
training schools is deleted as implicit in the reference to "training schools".

In item (3) of this section, the former phrase "from time to time" is deleted
as surplusage.

In item (5)(iv) of this section, the phrase "eligibility requirements" is
substituted for the former reference to "eligibility to attend" for
grammatical consistency within this item.
