REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 41, § 14-906.
In subsection (b) of this section, the former phrase "equipment designed to
enable individuals with disabilities to become more independent or more
productive members of the community with an improved quality of life" is
deleted as unnecessary because it is included in the definition of "assistive
technology".
In subsection (c) of this section, the former requirement that the Board
"manage" the Fund is deleted as included in the requirement that the
Board "administer" the Fund.
