                                    In the One Hundred and Ninety-First General Court
                                                      (2019-2020)
                                                     _______________
    An Act establishing a sick leave bank for Felix Cruz, an employee of the department of youth
    services.
            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:
1           Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, the department of youth
2   services shall establish a sick leave bank for Felix Cruz, an employee of the department. Any
3   employee of the department may voluntarily contribute 1 or more sick, personal or vacation days
4   to the sick leave bank for use by Felix Cruz. If Felix Cruz terminates employment with the
5   department or requests to dissolve the sick leave bank, any remaining time in the sick leave bank
6   shall be transferred to the extended illness leave bank. Sick leave bank days shall not be used for
7   absences unrelated to the illness or disability that necessitated the establishment of the sick leave
8   bank as determined by the department.
