HARRY HUGHES, Governor

79

In subsection (b)(2)(ii) of this section, the
terms "any other state" and "the other state" are
substituted for the phrase "another state or
jurisdiction" in light of the definition of
"state" in § 1-101 of this article.

Also in subsection (b)(2)(ii) of this section,
the phrase "or any other" state is added to
provide expressly that an audiologist who met the
licensing requirements in one state, and who then
was waived into a second state, then may be
waived by the Board into Maryland — a third
state -- on the basis of the license in the
second state, which was acquired by waiver on the
basis of the licensing requirements in the first
state. This provision, which is patterned after
comparable provisions in other titles of this
article and which conforms with Board practice,
allows the Board to give fair consideration under
this section to an audiologist who, in the course
of that professional career, has moved from one
state to another before moving to Maryland to
practice here.

2-306. ISSUANCE OF LICENSE.

THE BOARD SHALL ISSUE A LICENSE TO ANY APPLICANT WHO:

(1)  MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS OF THIS TITLE; AND

(2)  PAYS THE LICENSE FEE SET BY THE BOARD.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the first
sentence and -- as it applies to audiologists
the second sentence of Art. 43, § 795(a).

The provisions of present Art. 43, § 795(a) that
relate to speech pathologists now appear in Title
19 of this article. See the General Revisor's
Note to this title.

As to the authority of the Board to set fees, see
§ 2-206 of this title.

2-307. SCOPE OF LICENSE.

A LICENSE AUTHORIZES THE LICENSEE TO PRACTICE AUDIOLOGY
WHILE THE LICENSE IS EFFECTIVE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is a standard provision
added for clarity to this and, where necessary,
other titles of this article.

2-308. TERM AND RENEWAL OF LICENSES.
