(a) In granting a home leave, the institution shall fix terms and conditions it deems proper to govern the conduct of the youth while the home leave is in effect. The terms and conditions may be special in each case or may be prescribed by general rules and regulations of the department of family services in consultation with the institution.

(b) No youth granted a home leave shall be released from an institution until the youth has signed an agreement that the youth will comply with the terms and conditions under which the youth has been released and abide by the laws of the state. The agreement shall be retained in the records of the institution. In addition, no youth shall be granted a home leave until the institution makes a reasonable effort to notify the department of family services' office nearest the site of the home leave.

(c) A youth on home leave remains in the legal custody and under the control of the department and may be returned to the institution from which the youth was granted home leave for violation of a condition of home leave.

(d) Unless otherwise placed by the department, a home leave violator shall be returned to the institution from which the youth was granted home leave.
