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 Plymouth County Sheriff’s Department, 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 same as follows:

Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, the Plymouth County Sheriff’s Department shall establish a sick leave bank for Christopher Lemoing, an employee of the Plymouth County Sheriff’s Department.  Any employee of said Sheriff’s Department may voluntarily contribute one (1) or more sick, personal or vacation days to the sick leave bank for use by Christopher Lemoing.  Whenever Christopher Lemoing terminates employment with said Sheriff’s Department or requests to dissolve the sick leave bank, any remaining time in the sick leave bank shall be transferred to the Sheriff’s Department paid sick leave bank.  Sick leave bank days may not be used for absences unrelated to the illness or disability that necessitated the establishment of the sick leave bank as determined by the Plymouth County Sheriff’s Department.
