WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor

Ch. 3

Subsection (f)(4) of this section also is added as
standard language. It follows from the requirement
that there be staggered terms. An inherent aspect of
staggered terms is that they must begin and end at set
intervals. For circumstances under which subsection
(f)(4) of this section applies, see the General
Revisor's Note to this article.

Subsection (g) of this section is new language that
repeats the provisions of Md. Constitution, Art. II, §
15. For other provisions on removal, see: Md.
Constitution,- Art. XV, § 2, on suspension and removal
for crimes, and Art. 41, § 1-203 of the Code, on
removal for failure to attend meetings.

In subsection (b)(4) of this section, the defined term
"person" is substituted for the former list
"establishment, firm, or corporation" since there
seemed to be no intent to exclude individuals who
manufacture or sell.

Also in subsection (b)(4) of this section, the former
words "wholesale or jobbing" are deleted as
unnecessary in light of the word "sells", which is not
limited to retail sales.

In subsection (f)(1) of this section, the former
requirement that successors of the first Board "have
the qualifications, hereinabove expressed" is deleted
as unnecessary in light of subsection (b) of this
section and incomplete in light of subsection (c) of
this section, which the former requirement did not
cover.

The Business Occupations Article Review Committee
notes, for consideration by the General Assembly, that
former Art. 56, § 489 restricted affiliation with "any
school of beauty culture" and limited membership based
on graduation from "the same school of beauty
culture". In light of the definition of "school of
beauty culture" in former Art. 56, § 479(m), the
references in former § 489 seemingly did not encompass
postgraduate schools of cosmetology. Therefore,
subsection (b)(3) and (5) of this section refers only
to a "school of cosmetology". The Committee believes,
however, that, particularly with respect to subsection
(b)(3) of this section, the General Assembly may wish
to preclude affiliation with a postgraduate school of
cosmetology also.

Defined terms: "Beauty salon" § 5-101
"Board" § 5-101 "Consumer member" § 1-101
