40A(f)(2)(i), which stated that a regulation "is not
effective until so submitted" and which was misleading
since, under § 10-117 of this subtitle, a regulation
is not effective until at least 10 days after
adoption, also is deleted as unnecessary.

Similarly, former Art. 40, § 40A(f)(2)(ii), which
stated that submission does not preclude adoption,
former Art. 41, § 256-I(a)(4)(i), which required the
Administrator to file a proposed regulation with the
Committee, and former Art. 41, § 256-I(a)(4)(ii),
which stated publication constitutes submission, also
are deleted as unnecessary.

As to the duty of the Committee to review proposed and
adopted regulations and requests for approval as to
emergency adoption of regulations, see § 2-506(a)(l)
and (2) of this article.
