may also wish to amend appropriate provisions of this article, i.e., those
that relate to inmates of State and local correctional facilities who are
granted work release and other types of administrative release, to
authorize a victim to request that an inmate be prohibited from having
contact with the victim as a condition of work release or administrative
release.

In subsection (e) of this section, the reference to the "inmate's
representative" is added for consistency with § 7-303(b) of this title.

In subsection (f) of this section, the former phrase "[i]f an updated victim
impact statement or recommendation is prepared under this subsection" is
deleted as implicit.

In subsection (g) of this section, the reference to "a victim [who] request[s]
an open hearing" is substituted for the former references to "[a victim] of
[a] crime ... [who] requests an open hearing" and "a victim who has filed a
notification request form under Article 27, § 770 of the Code ... [and who]
requests an open hearing" for consistency with § 7-304 of this article.

Also in subsection (g) of this section, the former reference to the victim "or
a designated representative" is deleted as included in the defined term
"victim".
