The present Commission is composed of thirty-one elected and appointed officials, law enforce- ment professional and citizens with knowledge and interest in law enforcement and justice, representing all segments of the criminal justice system. The Commission is to evaluate the recommenda- tions of the President's Commission on Law Enforcement and Admin- istration, appraising the needs of the State's criminal systems and putting into effect those proposals of the President's commission that the State unit finds to be worthwhile for Maryland. The Commission is the State agency responsible for law enforce- ment, criminal justice, and crime prevention planning in Maryland. The Commission also administers the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1970 and the Juvenile Delinquency Prevention and Control Act of 1968. Under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act the Commission is responsible for developing a compre- hensive law enforcement and criminal justice plan and for making grants to local governments and State agencies for programs con- sistent with that plan. A professional staff headed by an Executive Director and composed of professionals in the field of law enforcement, law, correction, juve- nile delinquency prevention and control, data systems, financial admin- istration, auditing, and publications provides support to the Commis- sioners. The staff develops Comprehensive Plan proposals for the Commission's consideration, provides technical assistance to units of local government and other State agencies, financially administers all grant programs, and evaluates all projects funded by the Governor's Commission.
