The Director of Corrections, subject to the approval of the Board of Prison Terms, must first determine, on the basis of an inspection made by his direction, that such institution of another state is a suitable place for confinement of prisoners committed to his custody before entering into a contract permitting such confinement, and shall, at least annually, redetermine the suitability of such confinement. In determining the suitability of such institution of another state, the director shall assure himself that such institution maintains standards of care and discipline not incompatible with those of the State of California and that all inmates therein are treated equitably, regardless of race, religion, color, creed or national origin.
