Nothing in this chapter shall prohibit any lawful regulation or licensing of licensees by any municipality, county, or other political subdivision of this state; provided, however, that no such political subdivision shall license any licensee required to be registered by this chapter unless such licensee is properly licensed under this chapter.

## History

Ga. L. 1958, p. 55, § 15; Ga. L. 1968, p. 23, § 10; Code 1981, § 43-47-14; Ga. L. 1985, p. 975, § 2; Code 1981, § 43-47-13, as redesignated by Ga. L. 1995, p. 441, § 1.

## Editor's Notes

Ga. L. 1995, p. 441, § 1, repealed former Code Section 43-47-13, relating to maintenance of records by licensees, and renumbered former Code Section 43-47-14 as Code Section 43-47-13, effective July 1, 1995. Former Code Section 43-47-13 was based on Ga. L. 1968, p. 23, § 11.
