Sec.21a-1-2. Creation and authority

Latest version.

The department was established as a separate agency of the state government by public Act 412 of the 1959 General Assembly (Section 21a-1 of the Connecticut General Statutes). The department's powers are derived from the various statutes which it is charged with administering. These statutes deal generally with food and drugs, pharmacies, weights and measures, and consumer deception.
