 Introduced by M. of A. NORBER -- read once and referred to the Committee

 AN ACT to amend the public authorities law, in relation to establishing
 a no fare program for transportation on the Long Island Rail Road for
 duly enrolled members of the auxiliary police for the county of Nassau

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

 1 Section 1. Section 1266 of the public authorities law is amended by
 2 adding a new subdivision 14-a to read as follows:
 3 14-a. Notwithstanding any other provision of law or the terms of any
 4 contract, the authority, in consultation with the Long Island Rail Road,
 5 shall establish and implement a no fare program for transportation on
 6 the Long Island Rail Road for duly enrolled members of the auxiliary
 7 police of the county of Nassau and Nassau county villages and cities.
 8 In establishing such program, which has as its goal increased protection
 9 and improved safety for its commuters, the authority and the Long Island
 10 Rail Road shall, among other things, consider: (a) requiring such
 11 members who ride without cost to register with the Long Island Rail Road
 12 as a condition of riding without cost; (b) requiring such members to
 13 indicate during such registration process their regular working hours
 14 and the Long Island Rail Road trains that such members expect to ride;
 15 and (c) periodically re-registering and re-validating such members. The
 16 authority and the Long Island Rail Road shall also have the power to
 17 consider other matters necessary to carry out the goals and objectives
 18 of this subdivision.
 19 § 2. This act shall take effect on the thirtieth day after it shall
 20 have become a law.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
