 AN ACT to amend the retirement and social security law, in relation to
 the treatment of prior service with certain agencies by the New York

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Short title. This act shall be known and may be cited as

 3 § 2. Paragraph 2 of subdivision c of section 513 of the retirement and
 4 social security law is amended by adding a new subparagraph (iv) to read
 5 as follows:
 6 (iv) Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, a
 7 member of the New York city police pension fund subject to this article
 8 shall be eligible to obtain credit for any period of service rendered as
 9 a New York city school safety agent or supervisor of school safety
 10 agents, a New York city corrections officer or supervisor of New York
 11 city corrections officers, a New York city traffic enforcement agent or
 12 supervisor of traffic enforcement agents, or in the New York city police
 13 department cadet program in the title of police cadet program or police
 14 cadet program II, which immediately precedes service in the uniformed
 15 force of the New York city police department, and such service shall be
 16 deemed to be in service of the uniformed force of the New York city
 17 police department for purposes of eligibility for benefits and to deter-
 18 mine the amount of benefits under the New York city police pension fund,

 24 police pension fund or for a member who withdraws such contributions
 25 from the New York city employees' retirement system, such member's
 26 membership in the New York city employees' retirement system shall cease
