The Honorable Thomas V. Mike Miller, Jr.
President of the Senate
State House
Annapolis, MD 21401
Dear Mr. President:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, today I have
vetoed Senate Bill 857 - Consumer Protection - Enforcement Authority of Consumer
Protection Division.
This bill alters the stipulations or conditions that the Division of Consumer Protection
in the Office of the Attorney General may include in a written assurance of
discontinuance, settlement agreement, or cease and desist order provided for under
specified provisions of the Consumer Protection Act. The bill also requires the
Division to consider specified criteria in determining the amount of security a violator
or alleged violator of the Consumer Protection Act must post under specified
circumstances.
House Bill 507, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate
Bill 857.
Very truly yours, ,
Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.
Governor
Senate Bill No. 857
