10-106. CITATION OF STATUTORY AUTHORITY.

A REGULATION IS NOT EFFECTIVE UNLESS IT CONTAINS A CITATION
OF THE STATUTORY AUTHORITY FOR THE REGULATION.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 41, § 9(b)
and the third sentence of (a).

The former reference to an "administrative or
executive agency of the State of Maryland" is deleted
as unnecessary in light of §§ 10-102 and 10-105 of
this subtitle.

Defined term: "Regulation" § 10-101

10-107. SUBMISSION TO ATTORNEY GENERAL.

UNLESS A PROPOSED REGULATION IS SUBMITTED TO THE ATTORNEY
GENERAL FOR APPROVAL AS TO LEGALITY, THE REGULATION:

(1)  MAY NOT BE ADOPTED UNDER ANY STATUTORY AUTHORITY;
AND

(2)   IF ADOPTED, IS NOT EFFECTIVE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the first and third
sentences of former Art. 41, § 9(a).

In the introductory language of this section, the word
"proposed" is substituted for the former phrase
"[p]rior to the adoption", for brevity.

In item (1) of this section, the phrase "statutory
authority" is substituted for the former phrase
"rule-making power granted by the General Assembly",
for brevity and clarity.

The second sentence of former Art. 41, § 9(a), which
required regulations to be filed under the "State
Documents Law", is deleted as surplusage in light of
requirements of that former Law that now appear in §
10-111 of this subtitle.
