(1)
(i) The public agency shall provide any notice required by this part to both the individual and the parents; and
(ii) All other rights accorded to parents under Part B of the Act transfer to the student; and(2) All rights accorded to parents under Part B of the Act transfer to students who are incarcerated in an adult or juvenile, State or local
correctional institution.
(3) Whenever a State transfers rights under this part pursuant to paragraph (a)(1) or (a)(2) of this section, the agency shall notify the

the State shall establish procedures for appointing the parent, or, if
the parent is not available another appropriate individual, to represent the educational interests of the student throughout the student's eligibility under Part B of the Act.
