Department of Public Health and Social Services. § 1102. Duties. § 1103. Medical Referral Assistance Offices. § 1101. Department of Public Health and Social Services. [See 5 GCA ' 3111]. SOURCE: GC § 9000. COMMENT: This section contained the original creation of the Department and appointment of its Director. However, a section having an identical purpose and very similar language is found in 5 GCA '3111 (in Chapter 3, the Chapter in which all line agencies are listed), and that latter section is of more recent amendment than this section. Therefore, the Compiler is treating this section as having been repealed by implication. § 1102. Duties. The Department shall have cognizance of all Public Health and Social Services functions set forth in this Division and as otherwise provided by law, rule or regulation. SOURCE: GC § 9001. § 1103. Medical Referral Assistance Offices. There are created Medical Referral Assistance Offices in Honolulu, Hawaii, in Los Angeles, California, and in Metro Manila, Philippines, which shall be within the responsibility of the Office of the Governor. The Offices shall assist in coordinating appropriate medical appointments, as well as coordinating temporary housing and transportation.
