Ch. 6 LAWS OF MARYLAND

DRAFTER'S NOTE:

This ratifies corrections made by the Michie Company throughout the Code
to the name of the Business Occupations Article. The former references
were rendered incorrect by Section 4 of Chapter 632 of the Acts of 1989,
which changed the name of the article to "Business Occupations and
Professions".

SECTION 14. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That the 1988 Edition of
the Baltimore County Code and any supplement, to the extent the Code or a
supplement contains law enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland, is legalized.

and by all public officials of the State and of its political subdivisions to be evidence of
the law enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland contained therein.

SECTION 15. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That the publishers of the
Annotated Code of Maryland, subject to the approval of the Director of the
Department of Legislative Reference, shall make any changes in the text of the

the General Assembly and has taken effect or will take effect prior to October 1, 1990.
Any enactment of the 1990 Session of the General Assembly that negates or extends the
effect of a previously enacted termination provision shall prevail over the provisions of
this section.

contained in this Act are not law and may not be considered to have been enacted as
part of this Act.

SECTION 17. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That, except for Section 3
of this Act, the provisions of this Act are intended solely to correct technical errors in
the law and that there is no intent to revive or otherwise affect law that is the subject of
other acts, whether those acts were signed by the Governor prior to or after the signing
of this Act.

SECTION 18. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That the changes to Section
2 of Chapter 767 of the Acts of 1988 made by Section 2 of this Act shall be construed
retroactively and shall be applied to and interpreted to affect changes made to existing
acute psychiatric medical services on or after July 1, 1989.

SECTION 19. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That the changes made by
Section 4 of this Act shall be construed retroactively and shall be applied to and
interpreted to affect all ex officio members of the Maryland Industrial Development
Authority designated on or after July 1, 1988.

SECTION 20. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That this Act is an
emergency measure, is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public health
and safety, has been passed by a yea and nay vote supported by three-fifths of all the
members elected to each of the two Houses of the General Assembly, and shall take
effect from the date it is enacted.

Approved February 16, 1990.
