(7) REPORT ANNUALLY TO THE GOVERNOR AND, SUBJECT TO § 2-1246 OF
THE STATE GOVERNMENT ARTICLE, TO THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY ON THE ACTIVITIES
OF THE PROGRAM, INCLUDING:
(I) FINANCIAL REPORTS;
(II) ADVISORY BOARD ACTIONS;
(III) DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS; AND
(IV) SERVICE SUCCESSES AND FAILURES.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 88A, §§136 and 133(c).
In item (1) of this section, the former reference to "rules" is deleted in light
of the reference to "regulations". See General Revisor's Note to article.
In item (5) of this section, the former reference to any "appropriate" funds
is deleted as unnecessary.
Also in item (5) of this section, the former reference to donations that
"become available to the program" is deleted as redundant.
The Human Services Article Review Committee notes, for consideration by
the General Assembly, that although statutorily required, the Advisory
Board does not submit the report required under item (7) of this section
annually. This report was submitted annually during the first 4 years of
the existence of the Advisory Board, and has not been submitted since;
however, a report is submitted annually by the Department, and that
report is prepared jointly with the Advisory Board and includes most of the
information required under item (7) of this section.
Defined terms: "Advisory Board" § 6-417
"Department" § 6-101
"Homeless individual" § 6-417
"Program" § 6-417
6-426. DUTIES OF DEPARTMENT.
(A) IN GENERAL.
THE DEPARTMENT SHALL:
(1) CONTRACT WITH NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS TO OPERATE THE
PROGRAM;
(2) SEEK THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE ADVISORY BOARD ABOUT
POLICY DETERMINATIONS, THE ALLOCATION OF FUNDS, AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF
A PLAN TO SERVE HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES;
(3) ALLOCATE ANY AVAILABLE FEDERAL FUNDS AND STATE FUNDS TO
ESTABLISH, ADMINISTER, AND OPERATE SHELTER, NUTRITION, AND SERVICE
PROGRAMS FOR HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES;
