Title 49--PROFESSIONAL AND VOCATIONAL STANDARDS

STATE BOARD OF PSYCHOLOGY

[49 PA. CODE CH. 41]

Corrective Amendment to 49 Pa. Code § 41.31(b)(1)

[36 Pa.B. 3813]
[Saturday, July 22, 2006]

   The State Board of Psychology has discovered a discrepancy between the agency text of 49 Pa. Code § 41.31(b)(1)) (relating to qualifications for taking licensing examination), as deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau, and the official text published at 36 Pa.B. 2680, 2684 (June 3, 2006) and scheduled to be codified in the August 2006 Pennsylvania Code Reporter (Master Transmittal Sheet No. 381). The text of subsection (b)(1) omitted a reference to the APA.

   Therefore, under 45 Pa.C.S. § 901: The State Board of Psychology has deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau a corrective amendment to 49 Pa. Code § 41.31(b)(1). The corrective amendment to 49 Pa. Code § 41.31(b)(1) is effective as of June 3, 2006, the date the defective text was printed in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   The correct version of 49 Pa. Code § 41.31(b)(1) appears in Annex A, with ellipses referring to the existing text of the regulation.
