Existing law under the Business and Professions Code prescribes general provisions for purposes of its interpretation. Under existing law, if this code grants a power to a public officer or imposes a duty upon that officer, that power may be exercised or duty performed by a deputy of the officer or by a person legally authorized by the officer, unless it is expressly otherwise provided.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to those provisions.
