Whereas , The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to establish forthwith a sick leave bank for a certain employee of the department of youth services, 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:

Notwithstanding the provisions of any general or special law, rule or regulation to the contrary, the department of youth services is hereby authorized and directed to establish a sick leave bank for James F. Broughton, Jr., an employee of said department. Any employee of said department may voluntarily contribute one or more of his sick, personal or vacation days to said sick leave bank for use by said James F. Broughton, Jr. Said James F. Broughton, Jr. may use said sick leave bank after he has exhausted all leave available to him from the extended illness leave bank administered by the human resources division.
