section, the change in law made by this Act applies only to an

law is continued in effect for that purpose. For purposes of this
subsection, an offense was committed before the effective date of
this Act if any element of the offense was committed before that
date.

after the effective date of this Act is serving a sentence in the

Department of State Health Services or the Department of Aging and
Disability Services for an offense committed before, on, or after
the effective date of this Act.
