Alcohol, Tobacco, and Cannabis Commission – Enforcement Activities – Memorandum of Understanding

HB 112 repeals a requirement in Maryland law that the Alcohol, Tobacco, and Cannabis Commission and the Comptroller must enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for cooperative enforcement activities related to alcohol and tobacco. The bill removes Section 1-321(a)(3) from the Annotated Code of Maryland, which previously mandated this formal agreement for inspections and enforcement. This change affects the Commission and Comptroller directly by eliminating a specific administrative step for coordinating enforcement, while leaving other cooperation provisions intact. The law takes effect July 1, 2025, and does not alter enforcement responsibilities or create new regulations.
