Delaware Code Title 24. Professions and Occupations § 1712B. Date of implementation of the PA Licensure Compact Commission

(1) On or after the effective date of the Compact, the Commission shall convene and review the enactment of each of the states that enacted the Compact prior to the Commission convening (“charter participating states”) to determine if the statute enacted by each such charter participating state is materially different from the Model Compact.

(2) Participating states enacting the Compact subsequent to the 7 initial charter participating states shall be subject to the process set forth in § 1708B(c)(21) of this title to determine if their enactments are materially different from the Model Compact and whether they qualify for participation in the Compact.

(3) All actions taken for the benefit of the Commission or in furtherance of the purposes of the administration of the Compact prior to the effective date of the Compact or the Commission coming into existence shall be considered to be actions of the Commission unless specifically repudiated by the Commission.

(1) A participating state's withdrawal shall not take effect until 180 days after enactment of the repealing statute.  During this 180-day period, all compact privileges that were in effect in the withdrawing state and were granted to licensees licensed in the withdrawing state shall remain in effect.  If any licensee licensed in the withdrawing state is also licensed in another participating state or obtains a license in another participating state within the 180 days, the licensee's compact privileges in other participating states shall not be affected by the passage of the 180 days.

(2) Withdrawal shall not affect the continuing requirement of the state licensing board(s) of the withdrawing state to comply with the investigative, and adverse action reporting requirements of this Compact prior to the effective date of withdrawal.

(3) Upon the enactment of a statute withdrawing a state from this Compact, the state shall immediately provide notice of such withdrawal to all licensees within that state.  Such withdrawing state shall continue to recognize all licenses granted pursuant to this Compact for a minimum of 180 days after the date of such notice of withdrawal.
