   THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section  1.    The  legislative law is amended by adding a new section
 43-a to read as follows:
   § 43-A. TAKING EFFECT AND SUNSET OF LEGISLATION. 1.  THIS  SUBDIVISION
 APPLIES  WHERE  AN ACT OF THE LEGISLATURE PROVIDES THAT A LAW SHALL TAKE
 EFFECT AT A TIME AFTER IT BECOMES A LAW,  UNLESS  THE  ACT  SPECIFICALLY
 PROVIDES  OTHERWISE.    A  STATE OR LOCAL GOVERNMENT ENTITY OR OFFICIAL,
 WHICH OR WHO WILL HAVE AUTHORITY UNDER SUCH LAW TO MAKE  REGULATIONS  OR
 TAKE OTHER ACTIONS NECESSARY TO ENFORCE OR IMPLEMENT THE LAW, MAY ADOPT,
 AMEND,  SUSPEND  OR  REPEAL  ANY  SUCH  REGULATIONS  AND TAKE SUCH OTHER
 ACTIONS PRIOR TO AND IN PREPARATION FOR THE TAKING EFFECT  OF  THE  LAW;
 PROVIDED,  HOWEVER,  SUCH  ADOPTION,  AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION OR REPEAL OF
 REGULATIONS SHALL NOT HAVE LEGAL EFFECT  UNTIL  THE  LAW  TAKES  EFFECT.
 NOTHING  IN THIS SECTION SHALL BE CONSTRUED AS AUTHORIZING THE ADOPTION,
 AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION OR REPEAL OF REGULATIONS  ON  AN  EMERGENCY  BASIS
 UNLESS  SUCH  ACTION  QUALIFIES  FOR  EMERGENCY  RULE MAKING PURSUANT TO
 APPLICABLE STATUTES, OR AS OTHERWISE RELIEVING  AN  ENTITY  OR  OFFICIAL
 FROM APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW.
   2.  WHERE  AN ACT OF THE LEGISLATURE AMENDS A PROVISION OF LAW THAT IS
 TO BE REPEALED OR OF NO FORCE AND EFFECT ON OR AFTER A CERTAIN DATE, THE
 AMENDMENT SHALL NOT AFFECT THE REPEAL OR LOSS OF FORCE AND EFFECT OF THE
 PROVISION, AND THE AMENDMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE REPEALED OR TO BE  OF
 NO FORCE AND EFFECT THEREWITH, UNLESS THE ACT PROVIDES OTHERWISE.
   § 2.  This act shall take effect immediately.
