   1-28        (d)  The governing body of a public retirement system shall:

   1-41  1993.
   1-42        SECTION 3.  The importance of this legislation and the

   1-46  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended,
   1-47  and that this Act take effect and be in force from and after its
   1-48  passage, and it is so enacted.
