AN ACT to establish a pilot program related to making the gluten content
  of  food available at certain state owned, operated, or leased cafete-
  rias; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon  expiration
  thereof

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
the commissioner of the office of general services shall  identify  four
state owned buildings, facilities, or complexes where food and beverages
are  offered for sale to the general public or government employees in a
cafeteria setting which are operated or leased by the state, for  inclu-
sion in a gluten content pilot program. One state owned building, facil-
ity,  or  complex for such pilot program shall be located in each of the
following cities: Albany, Buffalo, Syracuse,  and  New  York  City.  The
commissioner shall ensure that the cafeterias contained within the iden-
tified  buildings,  facilities,  or complexes have an employee available
during the hours of operation that can accurately identify upon  request
whether a food or beverage item offered is gluten-free. For the purposes
of  this  section, the term "gluten-free" shall include food or beverage
that is consistent with the Food and Drug Administration's final rule to
define the term "gluten-free" for voluntary use in the labeling of food.
  S 2. This act shall take effect on the one hundred eightieth day after
it shall have become a law, and shall  expire  and  be  deemed  repealed
three years after such date.
