Ch. 3

LAWS OF MARYLAND

REVISOR'S NOTE: Subsection (a) of this section is new
language derived without substantive change from the
second clause of former Art. 56, § 463, as that clause
related to the requirement that an individual be
registered, and rephrased in standard language to
state affirmatively that an individual must be
licensed to practice architecture in the State. See
also § 3-601 of this title.

Subsection (b) of this section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 56, §
469(4).

In subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the
references to being "licensed" are substituted for the
former references to being "registered", for
consistency and conformity to changes in terminology
made throughout this article. See the General
Revisor's Note to this article.

In subsection (b)(2) of this section, the former-
requirement for licensure "promptly upon being
commissioned" is deleted as unnecessary in light of
the restriction "before the architect may practice
architecture".

The provisions of the second clause of former Art. 56,
§ 463 that provided for persons to "be compelled to
submit evidence that they are qualified to practice
architecture" are deleted as unnecessary in light of
the specific requirements of this subtitle.

Defined terms: "Architect" § 3-101

"Board" § 3-101 "Practice architecture" § 3-101
