permitted the Legislative Auditor to provide the
certification required under subsection
(b)(l)(iii) of this section, is deleted as
inconsistent with the fourth sentence of former
Article 43, § 568Pb., which stated that the
Legislative Auditor is the certified public
accountant for the University of Maryland
Hospital and, thus, requires certification by the
Legislative Auditor. This revision of subsection
(b)(1)(iii) of this section is in accordance with
the apparent intent of Ch. 752, Acts of 1980,
although the title of that Act did not reflect
this authorization. See Bill Review Letter (H.B.
521) from Stephen H. Sachs, Attorney General, to
Harry R. Hughes, Governor, May 19, 1980.
