Ch. 36

1995 LAWS OF MARYLAND

Also in subsection (a)(1) of this section, the former phrase "relating to
another type of insurance" is deleted as unnecessary in light of the definition
of "insurance", which is intended to include all types of insurance.

In subsection (a)(2) and (3) of this section, the defined term "certificate of
qualification" is substituted for the former term "certificate" for clarity and
consistency.

In subsection (a)(7) of this section, the former reference to the "Unsatisfied
Claim and Judgment Fund" is deleted as obsolete. The Maryland Automobile
Insurance Fund now handles virtually all of the matters that formerly were
handled by the Unsatisfied Claim and Judgment Fund. See Ch. 73, Acts of
1972. The Insurance Article Review Committee calls this deletion to the
attention of the General Assembly.

Also in subsection (a)(7) of this section, the former term "bona fide", which
modified "intention", is deleted as surplusage.

In subsection (a)(11) of this section, the reference to a "rule" of the
Commissioner is deleted in light of the reference to a "regulation". See the
General Revisor's Note to this article.

In subsection (a)(12) of this section, the former phrase "in his hands" is
deleted as implicit.

In subsection (c) of this section, the former phrase "[i]n addition to the
reasons provided in subsection (a) of this section" is deleted as surplusage.

In subsection (e) of this section, the former reference to not "restrict[ing]" the
rights of claimants is deleted as unnecessary in light of the reference to not
"limit[ing]" those rights.
