In subsection (b) of this section, the reference to "[t]he holder of a raffle
permit" is added to clarify which entity has the obligation to award the

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 27, § 247(a), as it related to Queen Anne's County.
This section is restated as an affirmative grant of authority to certain
qualified organizations to conduct bingo for clarity.
In the introductory language of this section, the former limitation
"[n]othing in this subtitle [sic] shall be construed to make it unlawful" is
deleted in light of § 13-101 of this title and the reorganization of material
derived from the former "Gaming" subheading of Article 27 in Titles 12 and
13 of this article.
Also in the introductory language of this section, the former reference to
the authority to "operate" bingo is deleted as included in the reference to
the authority to "conduct" bingo.
In item (3) of this section, the former reference to "corporations" is deleted
as included in the reference to an "organization".
