REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from Art. 43, §
488(c), from Art. 43, §490(b) — except for the
introductory language of that section, which now
appears in § 15-312 of this subtitle — and from
Art. 43, §490(d)(2), the first sentence of
(e)(1), and the first sentence of (g).

In the introductory language of subsection (a) of
this section, the phrase "deny a license to any
applicant" is standard language added to this
and, where necessary, corresponding sections in
