Editor's notes.
- Ga. L. 1986, p. 264, ยง 2, which enacted this article, provides that this article shall become effective upon necessary appropriations being specifically made by the General Assembly to fund this article and that the article shall stand repealed should the General Assembly ever thereafter fail to fully appropriate the funds necessary to implement this article. The funding necessary to implement this article was made beginning fiscal year 1987.
Funds were appropriated in the 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020 sessions of the General Assembly for the continued funding of the "Respiratory Care Practices Act" (1986) for the purpose of licensing qualified applicants as physicians, physician assistants, respiratory care professionals, perfusionists, acupunturists, orthotists, prosthetists, and auricular (ear) detoxification specialists, as well as to investigate complaints and discipline those who violate the Medical Practice Act or other laws governing the professional behavior of the Board licenses.
