2021 Georgia Code|Title 50 - State Government|Chapter 12 - Commissions and Other Agencies|Article 8 - Georgia Commission on the Holocaust|§ 50-12-130. Creation of Georgia Commission on the Holocaust

 The General Assembly finds and declares that:    During the period from 1933 through 1945, six million Jews and millions of other Europeans were murdered in Nazi concentration camps as part of a carefully orchestrated program of cultural, social, and political genocide known as the Holocaust;   All people should remember the horrible atrocities committed at that time and other times in human history as the result of bigotry and tyranny and, therefore, should continually rededicate themselves to the principles of human rights and equal protection under the laws of a democratic society;   It is desirable to educate our citizens about the events leading up to the Holocaust and about the organizations and facilities that were created and used purposefully for the systematic destruction of human beings;   Holocaust history is the proper concern of all people, particularly students enrolled in the schools, colleges, and universities of the State of Georgia;   Programs, workshops, institutes, seminars, exhibits, and other teacher-training activities for the study of the Holocaust have taken place during recent years at various middle schools, high schools, colleges, and universities in this state; and   It is desirable to create a permanent state commission which, as an organized body and on a continuous basis, will survey, design, encourage, and promote implementation of Holocaust education and awareness programs in Georgia and will be responsible for organizing and promoting the memorialization of the Holocaust on a regular basis throughout the state.

In furtherance of this responsibility, the commission shall be authorized to contact and cooperate with existing Holocaust and genocide public or private nonprofit resource organizations and may act as a liaison concerning Holocaust and genocide education to members of the United States Senate and House of Representatives, the Georgia Senate and House of Representatives, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, and other national and international Holocaust agencies;   Compile a roster of individual volunteers who are willing to share their verifiable knowledge and experiences in classrooms, seminars, and workshops on the subject of the Holocaust. Such volunteers may be survivors of the Holocaust, liberators of concentration camps, scholars, members of the clergy, community relations professionals, and other persons who, by virtue of their experience, education, or interest, have experience with the Holocaust;   Coordinate events memorializing the Holocaust and seek volunteers who are willing and able to participate in commemorative events that will enhance public awareness of the significance of the Holocaust;   Prepare reports for the Governor and the General Assembly regarding its findings and recommendations to facilitate the inclusion of Holocaust studies and special programs memorializing the Holocaust in educational systems in this state; and   Appoint advisory committees to advise the commission on the fulfillment of its duties.

  Each rule adopted after July 1, 1965, shall not become effective until the expiration of 20 days after the rule is filed in the office of the Secretary of State. Each rule so filed shall contain a citation of the authority pursuant to which it was adopted and, if an amendment, shall clearly identify the original rule.   The Secretary of State shall endorse on each rule thus filed the time and date of filing and shall maintain a record of the rules for public inspection.   The 20 day filing period is subject to the following exceptions:   Where a statute or the terms of the rule require a date which is later than the 20 day period, then the later date is the effective date; and   Any emergency rule adopted pursuant to subsection (b) of Code Section 50-13-4 may become effective immediately upon adoption or within a period of less than 20 days. The emergency rule, with a copy of the finding as required by subsection (b) of Code Section 50-13-4, shall be filed with the office of the Secretary of State within four working days after its adoption.     The Secretary of State shall prescribe rules governing the manner and form in which regulations shall be prepared for filing. The Secretary may refuse to accept for filing any rule that does not conform to such requirements.    (Ga. L. 1964, p. 338, § 6; Ga. L. 1979, p. 1014, § 2; Ga. L. 1982, p. 3, § 50; Ga. L. 2000, p. 1619, § 4.)   OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL   Rules must be properly adopted to be valid.    - Any rule, regulation, resolution, etc., by whatever name called, which falls under the definition of a "rule," as defined by Ga. L. 1965, p. 283, §§ 2-4 (see O.C.G.A. § 50-13-2), must be adopted pursuant to the procedure for adoption of rules, i.e., Ga. L. 1965, p. 283, §§ 6, 7 and 8 and Ga. L. 1964, p. 338, § 6 (see O.C.G.A. §§ 50-13-4 through50-13-7), if it is to be valid against any person or party. Op. Att'y Gen. No. 71-158.   Decision not to file and withdrawal of rules.   - While the language of the Georgia Administrative Procedure Act, Ga. L. 1968, p. 338 § 1 et seq. (see O.C.G.A. T. 50, C. 13) is geared to the initial filing of a rule, there is no difference in principle between an initial decision not to file and a subsequent decision to withdraw that which has already been filed; in the context of the purposes for which that chapter was adopted, the statutory requirements and the statutory penalties, both situations would seem to be the same. 1971 Op.
