Chap. 0318 An Act relative to expenditures for the care, maintenance and repair of tuberculosis hospitals in certain counties.
Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would result in unnecessarily extending the period during which expenditures by certain counties for tuberculosis hospital purposes would be made without express authorization therefor by the general court, therefore this act is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.
Be it enacted, etc., as follows:
The trustees of the Bristol county tuberculosis hospital and the county commissioners of the other counties hereinafter specified are hereby authorized to expend for the year nineteen hundred and fifty-two the sums set forth in this act for the care, maintenance and repair of the county tuberculosis hospitals within their respective counties, and to assess the same in the manner set forth in section eighty-five of chapter one hundred and eleven of the General Laws, as amended. In case of extraordinary or unforeseen emergencies the director of accounts, at the request of said trustees or county commissioners, may authorize expenditures in excess of any particular item; provided, that another item or items of expenditure shall be reduced by an equivalent amount.
