1834                                       LAWS OF MARYLAND                            [Ch.

ANY INDIVIDUAL DESIRING TO OBTAIN A LICENSE TO
WEIGH, MEASURE, SAMPLE, OR TEST MILK OR OTHER FLUID
DAIRY PRODUCTS SHALL APPLY TO THE SECRETARY AND PAY AN
APPLICATION FEE. IF THE APPLICANT SATISFACTORILY
PASSES AN APPROPRIATE EXAMINATION CONDUCTED BY THE
SECRETARY, HE SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE KIND OF
LICENSE FOR WHICH HE QUALIFIES UPON THE PAYMENT OF A
FEE.

(C) DURATION; RENEWAL.

EVERY LICENSE IS VALID FOR THE LICENSE YEAR FOR
WHICH IT IS ISSUED UNLESS REVOKED OR SUSPENDED. EACH
LICENSE MAY BE RENEWED ANNUALLY WITHOUT EXAMINATION
UPON APPLICATION AND PAYMENT OF A RENEWAL FEE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 97, §91 of the Code. The present
reference to "persons subject to the
provisions of §86" is proposed for deletion
and "permit holder" is substituted because
§86 provides for the issuance of a permit.
The last sentence is proposed for deletion
because it appears as new language in
§11-403. In subsection (2) the word "sample"
is added to conform with the wording in
subsection (b). This is consistent with the
apparent legislative intent of the section.
The only other changes made are in style.

SEC. 11-406. REVOCATION OR SUSPENSION OF PERMITS AND
LICENSES.

THE SECRETARY MAY REVOKE OR SUSPEND ANY PERMIT OR
LICENSE ISSUED UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBTITLE
UPON SATISFACTORY PROOF THAT THE PERMIT OR LICENSE
HOLDER HAS VIOLATED ANY PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBTITLE OR
ANY RULES AND REGULATIONS ADOPTED UNDER IT. HOWEVER,
NO PERMIT OR LICENSE MAY BE REVOKED OR SUSPENDED UNTIL
THE HOLDER IS GIVEN A HEARING BY THE SECRETARY AFTER
REASONABLE NOTICE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section presently appears as
Art. 97, §96 of the Code. The present
reference to "due" notice is proposed for
deletion and "reasonable" notice is
substituted to avoid the disparate
interpretations surrounding the concept of
"due" notice. The only other changes made
are in style.
