OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

Applicability of Administrative Procedure Act.

- The Administrative Procedure Act, O.C.G.A. § 50-13-1 et seq., does not apply to O.C.G.A. Title 28, Chapter 5, Article 5 requirement of submitting a description of a program to the Secretary of State and, while the Secretary of State must publish the program descriptions in the rules, a state agency has complied sufficiently when it has filed the description with the Secretary. 1993 Op. Att'y Gen. No. 93-13.

Applicability to federal funds.

- O.C.G.A. § 28-5-122 makes clear that O.C.G.A. Title 28, Chapter 5, Article 5 applies to grants from federal funds, with the possible exception, hypothetically, of federal funds granted to the state under terms and conditions which preclude application of that article under the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution, but where state participation in the federal program is otherwise clearly authorized. 1993 Op. Att'y Gen. No. 93-13.
