LAWS OF MARYLAND

Ch. 284

(II) PUBLISH THESE EXECUTIVE ORDERS IN A VOLUME
OR OTHER SEPARATE PART OF THE CODE, AS THE MARYLAND RULES ARE
PUBLISHED.

(C) TEMPORARY OR OBSOLETE ORDERS.

(1)  THE PUBLISHER IS NOT REQUIRED TO PUBLISH:

(I)  A PROCLAMATION AS TO A STATE OF EMERGENCY
OR ANY OTHER EXECUTIVE ORDER UNDER ARTICLE 41, § 15B OF THE CODE;
OR

(II)  ANY EXECUTIVE ORDER THAT HAS BEEN
RESCINDED OR HAS EXPIRED.

(2)  THE DIRECTOR OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LEGISLATIVE
REFERENCE SHALL ESTABLISH A PROCEDURE TO REMOVE FROM THE CODE AN
EXECUTIVE ORDER THAT HAS BEEN RESCINDED OR HAS EXPIRED.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 41, §
15CE(c), (d), and the second sentence of (a).

In subsection (b)(1) of this section, the specific
reference to "§ 24" of Md. Constitution, Art. II is
added for clarity.

In the introductory clause of subsection (b)(2) of
this section, the limitation "that are required to be
published" is added to reflect subsection (c) of this
section.

In subsection (c)(1)(ii) of this section, the
exception for an executive order that "has been
rescinded" is substituted for the former reference to
inclusion of an order that "remains unrevoked", to
standardize the reference to abrogation of executive
orders. Similarly, in subsection (c)(2) of this
section, the former word "revocation" is deleted as
unnecessary in light of the word "rescinded".

Also in subsection (c)(1)(ii) of this section, the
words "has expired" are added to conform to subsection
(c)(2) of this section.

Former Art. 41, § 15CE(b), which also required
publication of executive orders in the session laws,
is deleted as unnecessary in light of § 2-1309 of this
article and as incomplete, since §§ 7-205 and 7-206 of
this article provide for publication in the Maryland
Register and the Code of Maryland Regulations.

Defined term: "Executive order" § 3-401
