LAWS OF MARYLAND

Ch. 284

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 41, §
256F(g) and the first and third sentences of (h).

In subsection (b)(1) of this section, the language
"constitutes withdrawal under this section" is
substituted for the former language "shall be regarded
as withdrawn", for clarity. Therefore, the second
sentence of former Art. 41, § 256F(h), which
prohibited adoption without republication, is deleted
as unnecessary in light of subsection (a)(2) of this
section.

Defined terms: "Administrator" § 10-101
"Register" § 10-101 "Regulation" § 10-101
