LAWS OF MARYLAND

Ch.8

The reference in present Art. 43, § 610(c)(2) to
the types of applicants is deleted as
unnecessary.

Subsections (a)(l)(i) and (b)(l)(i) of this
section are standard language used in this and,
where necessary, corresponding sections of other
titles of this article. They state expressly
provisions that presently are only implied in the
law: i.e., that applications shall be made only
on the form required by the Board.

Subsections (a)(l)(ii) and (b)(1)(ii) of this
section, which are derived from the vague
references in present Art. 43, § 610(a)(l)(i) and
(2) to providing the Board with evidence of
graduation from clinical training, are revised to
clarify that an individual completes but does not
graduate from clinical training. This revision
conforms to the Board practice that requires an
applicant to submit to the Board evidence of
completion of the appropriate physical therapy
curriculum, as well as evidence of completion of
any clinical training required by the curriculum.
This revision is called to the attention of the
General Assembly.

As to subsections (a)(2) and (b)(2) of this
section, the second sentence of present Art. 43,
§ 611, which provides that "the fee shall be
retained by the Board ..." is deleted as
unnecessary.

As to the authority of the Board to set fees, see
§ 13-207 of this title.
