SECTION 3. Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (i) of paragraph (c) of subdivision (7) of section twenty-two of said chapter thirty-two or any other general or special law to the contrary, the amounts determined by the actuary of the public employee retirement administration on or before December fifteenth, nineteen hundred and ninety, as the required payments into the pension fund and pension reserve fund of the State-Boston retirement system for the fiscal year commencing July first, nineteen hundred and ninety-one, in accordance with said clause (i), shall be revised in accordance with the amount required in an actuarial funding schedule which fulfills the requirements of sections one and two of this act and has been approved by said actuary. The approved funding amount shall be issued by said actuary no later than December fifteenth, nineteen hundred and ninety-one, or within thirty days after the passage of this act, whichever is later.
