§ 227. Sanitary code; certified copy; evidence. The sanitary code may
be read in evidence from the official compilation of codes, rules and
regulations of the state of New York, or supplement thereto. To entitle
any copy of the sanitary code, other than the official compilation or
supplement thereto, to be read in evidence there shall be contained in
the same book or pamphlet a printed certificate of the secretary of
state that such copy is a correct transcript of the text of the sanitary
code as published in the official compilation or supplement thereto. For
such a certificate the secretary of state shall collect such a fee as he
shall deem just and reasonable.
