chapter 678 of the laws of 2007, is amended to read as follows:
  2. Each contract, LEASE, GRANT, BOND,  COVENANT,  DEBT  AGREEMENT,  OR
PERMIT,  to which the state or a public benefit corporation or a munici-
pal corporation or a commission appointed pursuant to law OR  AN  EDUCA-
TION  CORPORATION  ORGANIZED TO OPERATE A CHARTER SCHOOL is a party, and
any contract for public work entered into by a  third  party  acting  in
place  of, on behalf of and for the benefit of such public entity pursu-
ant to any lease, permit or other agreement between such third party and
the public entity, and which may involve  the  employment  of  laborers,
workers or mechanics shall contain a stipulation that no laborer, worker
or  mechanic  in  the  employ  of the contractor, subcontractor or other
person doing or contracting to do the  whole  or  a  part  of  the  work
contemplated by the contract shall be permitted or required to work more

completion without undue delay of the public work is  necessary  in  the
judgment  of  the commissioner for the preservation of the contract site
