Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to immediately authorize Maryanne Manfra to take a civil service examination for police officer, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives
in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same,
as follows:
Notwithstanding the provisions of any general or special law or rule to the contrary regulating the maximum age of an applicant for appointment as police officer, Maryanne Manfra shall be eligible to take the next open competitive examination for appointment to the position of police officer and, provided she meets all other requirements, shall be eligible for certification and appointment.
