                             CHAPTER 35-H.F.No. 282 
                  An act relating to state government; permitting state 
                  employees to donate vacation leave for the benefit of 
                  a certain state employee. 
        BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA: 
           Section 1.  [LEAVE DONATION PROGRAM.] 
           Subdivision 1.  [DONATION.] A state employee may donate up 
        to 12 hours of accrued vacation leave for the benefit of an 
        employee of the department of administration with leukemia.  The 
        number of hours donated must be credited to the sick leave 
        account of the receiving state employee.  If the receiving state 
        employee uses all of the donated time, up to 50 additional hours 
        per employee of accrued vacation leave may be donated.  Vacation 
        donation permitted by this section is in addition to that 
        permitted under Minnesota Statutes, section 43A.181. 
           Subd. 2.  [PROCESS FOR CREDITING.] The donating employee 
        must notify the employee's agency head of the amount of accrued 
        vacation leave time the employee wishes to donate.  The agency 
        head shall transfer that amount to the sick leave account of the 
        recipient.  A donation of accrued vacation leave time is 
        irrevocable once it has been transferred to the account. 
           Sec. 2.  [EFFECTIVE DATE.] 
           Section 1 is effective the day following final enactment.
