 16 be performed by members of a labor organization as defined in section
 17 two hundred ninety-two of the executive law.
 18 § 2. This act shall take effect on the thirtieth day after it shall
 19 have become a law; provided, however, that the amendments to paragraph j
 20 of subdivision 1 of section 163 of the state finance law made by section
 21 one of this act shall not affect the repeal of such section and shall be
 22 deemed to be repealed therewith.
