May 26, 1977
Honorable Steny H. Hoyer
President of the Senate
State House
Annapolis, Maryland 21404
Dear Mr. President:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the
Maryland Constitution, I have today vetoed Senate Bill
418.
This bill authorizes a pharmacist to dispense a drug
product of generic equivalency when filling certain
prescriptions under certain conditions.
House Bill 667 which was enacted by the General
Assembly and signed by lieutenant Governor Blair Lee III,
in his capacity as Acting Governor on May 26, 1977,
accomplishes the same purpose. In addition. House Bill
667 requires that any saving in cost which is realized by
using a drug of generic equivalency shall be passed on to
the consumer by the pharmacist. This provision is not
included in Senate Bill 418.
Since the purpose of Senate Bill 418 is accomplished
by the enactment and signing of House Bill 667, it is
unnecessary for me to sign Senate Bill 418.
