        Introduced  by  M. of A. OTIS -- read once and referred to the Committee
          on Governmental Operations
 
        AN ACT to amend the legislative law, in relation to  the  taking  effect
          and sunset of a law
 
          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:

     1    Section 1.  The legislative law is amended by  adding  a  new  section
     2  43-a to read as follows:
     3    §  43-a.  Taking effect and sunset of legislation. 1. This subdivision
     4  applies where (a) an act of the legislature provides that the act  shall
     5  take  effect  at a time after it becomes a law, and (b) a state or local
     6  government entity or official will have authority under that act to make
     7  rules or regulations and take  other  actions  reasonably  necessary  to
     8  implement  the  act;  unless  the  act  specifically provides otherwise.
     9  Effective immediately when the act becomes a law, the entity or official
    10  may make those rules or regulations and take  those  actions  reasonably
    11  necessary to implement the law on its effective date.  This section does
    12  not  authorize  the making of rules or regulations on an emergency basis
    13  unless that action qualifies for emergency rule making under  applicable
    14  law, and does not otherwise relieve the entity or official from applica-
    15  ble requirements of law.
    16    2.  Where  an act of the legislature amends a provision of law that is
    17  to be repealed or of no force and effect on or after a certain date, the
    18  amendment shall not affect the repeal or loss of force and effect of the
    19  provision, and the amendment shall be deemed to be repealed or to be  of
    20  no force and effect therewith, unless the act provides otherwise.
    21    § 2.  This act shall take effect immediately.
