(II) THE BALTIMORE CITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT SHALL BE LIABLE
FOR THE UNAUTHORIZED RELEASE OF INFORMATION PROVIDED UNDER PARAGRAPH
(1) OF THIS SUBSECTION.
(3) WITHIN 180 DAYS AFTER THE BALTIMORE CITY HEALTH
DEPARTMENT RECEIVES A CONFIDENTIAL RESEARCH RECORD UNDER PARAGRAPH
(1) OF THIS SUBSECTION, THE BALTIMORE CITY HEALTH DEPARTMENT SHALL
SUBMIT A REPORT TO THE DEPARTMENT DETAILING THE PURPOSES FOR WHICH THE
CONFIDENTIAL RECORD WAS USED.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 83C, § 2-115(a), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), and (h).
Throughout this section, references to a "confidential research record" are
substituted for the former references to a "confidential record" to avoid
confusion with confidential case records.
In subsection (b) of this section, the former conditions under which records
were required to remain in the custody and control of the Department are
deleted as unnecessary in light of the definition of "confidential research
record".
In subsection (d) of this section, the reference to the research or study
project "for which it was assembled or obtained" is substituted for the
former reference to the research or study "project" for consistency within
this section.
Defined terms: "Department" § 9-101
"Person" § 1-101
"Secretary" § 9-101
9-220. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT UNIT.
THE DEPARTMENT SHALL HAVE A UNIT FOR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
