  Section 1. Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary,  John
P.    O'Leary  who  was employed as a county legislator by the county of
Westchester, a participating employer of the New York  state  and  local
employees'  retirement system, from January 1, 1976 until June 30, 1985,
and who submitted an application to join such retirement system in Janu-
ary 1976, and who was not deemed to have joined such system until  March
13,  1986,  while employed by the state Senate, and who, for reasons not
ascribable to his own negligence, was not deemed to have joined the  New
York  state  and  local employees' retirement system on January 1, 1976,
shall be deemed to have joined such retirement system on such  date,  if
on  or  before  the thirty-first of December next succeeding the date on
which it shall have become a law, he shall submit  to  the  state  comp-
troller  an  application  for such membership and proof of employment by
the county of Westchester from 1976 until 1985.  Upon  the  granting  of
retroactive  membership  in  the  New  York  state  and local employees'

entitled to all the rights and benefits of such a membership.
