118 CMR 2.00 provides definitions for terms frequently used in M.G.L. c. 19C and 118 CMR. The terms are based on M.G.L. c. 19C and Disabled Persons Protection Commission usage common to the implementation of the Commission's duties and obligations. The terms used in 118 CMR have the meanings ascribed in M.G.L. c. 19C, unless otherwise specified in 118 CMR 2.00, elsewhere in 118 CMR, or unless the context otherwise requires. In any event no term shall be given a meaning that is either inconsistent with the manifest intent of M.G.L. c. 19C or repugnant to its context.
