In subsection (b)(2) of this section, the reference to "October 1, 2007" is
substituted for the former obsolete reference to "July 1, 1985" to reflect the
effective date of this revision. This substitution is not intended to alter the
term of any member of the Committee. See § 11 of Ch. 3, Acts of 2007. The
terms of the members serving on October 1, 2007, end as follows: (1) three
in 2008; (2) one in 2009; and (3) three in 2010.
In subsection (c) of this section, the reference to a "chair" is substituted for
the former reference to a "chairman" because SG § 2-1238 requires the use
of terms that are neutral as to gender to the extent practicable.
In subsection (d)(1) of this section, the former reference to expenses
"incurred in the performance of their official duties" is deleted as
surplusage.
In subsection (f) of this section, the reference to "§ 15-102 of the State
Government Article" is added for clarity.
Defined terms: "Committee" § 10-463
"Continuing care" § 10-401
