AN ACT to amend the criminal procedure law, in relation  to  allowing  a

  Section  1.  Subdivision 2 of section 420.35 of the criminal procedure
law, as amended by chapter 189 of the laws of 2018, is amended and a new

  2. [Under] EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS SUBDIVISION OR SUBDIVISION TWO-A
OF THIS SECTION, UNDER no circumstances shall the  mandatory  surcharge,
sex  offender  registration  fee,  DNA  databank fee or the crime victim

crime  victim  assistance  fee if such defendant is an eligible youth as

fee when: (i) the defendant is convicted of loitering for the purpose of
engaging in prostitution under section 240.37 of the penal law (provided
that  the  defendant  was  not convicted of loitering for the purpose of
patronizing a person for prostitution); (ii) the defendant is  convicted
of prostitution under section 230.00 of the penal law; (iii) the defend-
ant  is convicted of a violation in the event such conviction is in lieu
of a plea to or conviction for loitering for the purpose of engaging  in
prostitution  under  section  240.37 of the penal law (provided that the
defendant was not alleged to be loitering for the purpose of patronizing
