The Board can seek assistance from the Office of the Attorney General because this office provides legal support and guidance to state agencies. The Attorney General's office is responsible for interpreting laws, offering legal opinions, representing the state's interests in court, and ensuring compliance with legal standards. This relationship is essential for the Board, especially when dealing with issues that may involve legal inquiries, enforcement of regulations, and maintaining adherence to state laws regarding dental hygiene practices. The Attorney General can also assist in drafting legal documents or providing representation if needed.
The other offices listed do not serve the same legal advisory functions and are more focused on specific regulatory areas or services rather than comprehensive legal support. For instance, the Office of the Secretary of State primarily manages records and election-related matters, while the Office of Dental Services and the Office of Health and Human Services focus on health and service provisions rather than legal issues.
