CHAPTER 168 AN ACT PROCLAIMING RABIES PREVENTION WEEK WITHIN THE COMMONWEALTH.

Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to immediately permit the governor to proclaim a Rabies Prevention Week, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.

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

Chapter 6 of the General Laws is hereby amended by inserting after section 15DDD, inserted by section 1 of chapter 139 of the acts of 1987, the following section:-

Section 15EEE. The governor shall annually issue a proclamation setting apart the second week of June as Rabies Prevention Week and recommending that said week be observed by the people in an appropriate manner.

Approved June 25, 1987.
