CHAPTER 543 AN ACT AUTHORIZING THE TREASURER OF NORFOLK COUNTY TO PAY CERTAIN UNPAID BILLS.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:

SECTION 1. The county treasurer of Norfolk county, with the approval of the Norfolk county hospital trustees, is hereby authorized to pay from the hospital revenues during the current fiscal year such of the unpaid bills incurred by said hospital and totaling thirty-two thousand nine hundred twelve dollars and seventy-two cents as set forth in a list on file in the office of the bureau of accounts in the department of revenue for goods supplied and services rendered to said hospital during the years nineteen hundred and eighty-one through nineteen hundred and eighty-three, which bills are legally unenforceable against said hospital by reason of their being incurred in excess of available appropriations.

SECTION 2. No bill shall be approved by the Norfolk county hospital trustees, or paid by the county treasurer thereof, under the authority of this act, unless and until a certificate has been signed and filed with said county treasurer stating, under the penalties of perjury, that the goods or services for such bill had been submitted, were ordered by an official or an employee of said hospital, and that such goods were delivered and actually received by said hospital or that such services were actually rendered to said hospital or both.

No payments shall be made hereunder until and unless approved by a vote of the Norfolk county advisory board with a quorum present and voting.

SECTION 3. This act shall take effect upon its passage.

Approved December 4, 1985.
