REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 27, § 298(e).
The reference allowing the Department of State Police to initiate
investigations and enforce "this title" is substituted for the former obsolete
reference to "the provisions of §§ 276 through 302 of this article" to apply to
all sections of this title, including those that were enacted after the
enactment of former Art. 27, § 298(e). When former § 298(e) was enacted by
Ch. 403 of the Laws of 1970, the former controlled dangerous substances
subheading included only §§ 276 through 302.
