REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 88A, § 65A.
In subsection (a) of this section, the references to an "individual" are
substituted for the former references to a "person" because only a human
being, and not the other entities included in the defined term "person", can
apply for public assistance.
In subsections (b) and (c)(2) of this section, the references to "temporary"
cash assistance are added for consistency with Subtitle 3 of this title.
In subsection (b) of this section, the former reference to "Public Law
104-193" is deleted as surplusage.
Also in subsection (b) of this section, the former reference to being
"previously" convicted is deleted as surplusage.
In subsection (c)(1) of this section, the reference to "temporary cash
assistance or food stamps" is substituted for the former reference to "public
assistance" for consistency with subsections (b) and (c)(2) of this section.
In subsection (c)(2) of this section, the former reference to "July 1, 2000" is
deleted as obsolete.
In subsection (c)(3) of this section, the former phrase "subject to this
subsection" is deleted as surplusage.
Defined terms: "Department" § 5-101
"Secretary" § 1-101
5-602. FLAT GRANT PAYMENTS.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF LAW, THE ADMINISTRATION, A
LOCAL DEPARTMENT, OR ANY OTHER UNIT MAY NOT DECREASE THE MONETARY
AMOUNT OF ASSISTANCE RECEIVED BY ANY RECIPIENT OF PUBLIC ASSISTANCE
BEFORE THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A SYSTEM OF FLAT GRANT PAYMENTS, SOLELY
AS A RESULT OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SYSTEM.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 88A, § 17B.
