Ch. 48

LAWS OF MARYLAND

Subsection (b)(4) of this section is new language
added to state expressly the exception indicated by
the cross references, in former SF § ll-103(b), to "§§
11-154 and 11-172" — now § 13-305 of this article.

In subsection (a)(l)(v) of this section, the reference
to the "Department of Economic and Employment
Development" is substituted for the former reference
to the "Department of Economic and Community
Development", to reflect the reorganization of the
latter Department by Ch. 311, Acts of 1987.

In subsection (a)(l)(vi) of this section, the word
"or" is substituted for the former word "and", since
it did not seem to be the intent of the General
Assembly to exclude only those services procured
jointly by the Board of Trustees and the State
Investment Agency.

Similarly, in subsection (a)(1)(xii)3. of this
section, the word "or" is substituted for the former
word "and", since it did not seem to be the intent to
exclude services only if they relate both to
investment and banking.

In subsection (c) of this section, the reference to
"Title 14, Subtitle 3 of this article" is added to
reflect FI § 13-718(2).

Defined terms: "Architectural services" § 11-101
"Board" § 11-101 "Procurement" § 11-101
"Procurement contract" § 11-101
