LAWS OF MARYLAND

Ch. 240

INSERTED IN THE POISON REGISTER INSTEAD OF THE ENTRIES
OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY SUBSECTION (B) OF THIS SECTION.

(D)  FORM; RETENTION; INSPECTION.
A POISON REGISTER SHALL BE:

(1)  IN THE FORM REQUIRED BY THE BOARD;

(2)  KEPT FOR AT LEAST 2 YEARS AFTER THE LAST
ENTRY; AND

(3)  OPEN TO INSPECTION BY ANY PROPER AUTHORITY.

(E)  SIGN REQUIRED.

ANY PERSON WHO IS REQUIRED TO KEEP A POISON REGISTER
SHALL DISPLAY CONSPICUOUSLY IN EACH STORE IN WHICH THE
PERSON SELLS CONTROLLED POISON A SIGN THAT:

(1)  IS AT LEAST 9 INCHES IN HEIGHT AND 12 INCHES
IN WIDTH; AND

(2)  STATES: "UNDER THE LAWS OF THIS STATE, ALL
PURCHASERS OF POISONS MUST SIGN THE RECORD OF PURCHASE".

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Article
43, § 276(a), (c), and (d) and the last clause of
§ 279.

In the introductory clause of subsection (b) of
this section, the phrase "or otherwise provides"
is substituted for "disposes of" and "furnishes"
and the former phrase "at retail", which modified
"sells", is deleted as unnecessary.

In subsection (b)(1) of this section, the phrase
"or delivery" is new language added for clarity.

In subsection (b)(2) of this section, "person for
whom the controlled poison is provided" is
substituted for "purchaser" to state the presumed
intent of the legislature.

In the introductory clause of subsection (e) of
this section, the reference to a "person who is
required to keep a poison register" is
substituted for the phrase "every store where
poisons are sold".
