REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 66C, §470-I of the Code. The new
language set forth in paragraph (3) is
derived from §470-I (c), which is proposed
for deletion here. In paragraph (4), the
present reference to "horses, mules, or
other equines" is proposed for deletion and
"equines" is substituted therefor because
horses and mules are equines. Paragraphs
(6) and (7) are new language derived from
Art. 66C, §470-I(r), as enacted by Ch. 312,
Acts of 1973. The present provisions
requiring the State's attorney to enforce
this section is proposed for deletion
because it duplicates §4-128. Paragraph
(5) is new language derived from the second
sentence of Art. 66C, §470J(a) and set
forth here for organizational purposes.
The vert "buy" is added to conform to the
Federal Meat Inspection Act, 21, U.S.C.
§641. In paragraph (17), the present
reference to "duly authorized
representative of the Board" is proposed
for deletion because all inspections are in
fact performed by the Secretary and bis
employees.

Art. 66c, §470-I(q) is proposed for
deletion because it is superfluous. The
uniform penalty provision of this title
