The Committee also notes, for consideration by the General Assembly, that
subsection (a)(1) of this section refers to a "repair service or source",
subsection (a)(3) and (4) of this section and § 10-502(1) of this subtitle refer
to a "contractor or repair shop", and subsection (b) of this section refers to a
"repair service". The General Assembly may wish to conform usage of these
terms for consistency.

10-504. PENALTIES.

A PERSON THAT INTENTIONALLY VIOLATES THIS SUBTITLE IS SUBJECT TO:

(1)      A CIVIL PENALTY NOT EXCEEDING $1,000 FOR EACH VIOLATION;
AND

(2)      DENIAL, SUSPENSION, OR REVOCATION OF ANY LICENSE HELD
UNDER THIS ARTICLE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 48A, § 490Q(d).

In item (2) of this section, the former reference to the denial, suspension, or
revocation of a license "[i]f applicable" is deleted as implicit.

The Insurance Article Review Committee notes, for consideration by the
General Assembly, that this section does not specify who is authorized to
impose civil penalties and to deny, suspend, or revoke the license of a person
that violates this subtitle. The General Assembly may wish to clarify that it is
the Commissioner who has this authority.
