HARRY HUGHES, Governor

227

Subsection (g) of this section is new language
derived without substantive change from Art. II,
§ 15 of the State Constitution. For other
provisions on removal, see: Art. XV, § 2 of the
State Constitution, on suspension and removal for
crimes; and Art. 41, § 4 of the Code, on removal
for failure to attend meetings.

In subsection (a)(1) of this section, new
language is added to clarify that there are 12
members on the Board.

As to subsection (a)(3) of this section, the
reference to "other" counties is new language
added in light of the definition of "county",
which includes Baltimore City, in § 1-101 of this
article.

In subsection (a)(4) of this section, as to the
substitution of "with the advice of the
Secretary" for "upon the recommendations of the
Secretary", see the General Revisor's Note to
this article.

In subsection (c)(2) and (3) of this section, the
present reference to "embalmer" is deleted as
unnecessary since the practice of embalming is
encompassed by the practice of mortuary science.

Also in subsection (c)(2) and (3) of this
section, "apprentice" is substituted for the term
"embalmer-in-training" and "funeral
director-in-training" in light of the provisions
relating to apprentices in this title.

In subsections (e), (f), and (g) of this section,
new language is added to clarify that the ex
officio member is subject to the oath subsection
but not to the qualifications, tenure, or removal
subsections of this section. In addition, note
that the ex officio member is not subject to the
compensation and reimbursement provision in §
6-204(c) of this subtitle.

In subsection (g) of this section, the term
"appointed" is added to clarify that the broad
discretion of the Governor as to the removal of
the Secretary is not limited by this provision.

Present Art. 43, § 340(b)(2)(v), which relates to
participation by the consumer members in
examination activities, now appears in § 6-304 of
this title.

The last clause of present Art. 43, § 340(f),
which sets out the initial term of one consumer
member, is deleted as unnecessary in light of
subsection (f)(1) of this section.
