         THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
       BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
    1    Section 1. Subdivision (aa) of section 427 of chapter 55 of  the  laws
    2  of  1992,  amending  the  tax  law  and  other  laws  relating to taxes,

    6  hundred eighty-three and three hundred eighty-four  of  this  act  shall
    7  expire on September 1, [2013] 2014;
    8    S  2. Subdivision 1 of section 257-c of the executive law, as added by
    9  chapter 55 of the laws of 1992, is amended to read as follows:
   10    1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, every  county  and  the
   11  city  of New York, may adopt a local law requiring individuals currently
   12  serving or who  shall  be  sentenced  to  a  period  of  probation  upon
   13  conviction  of  any  crime  [under article thirty-one of the vehicle and
   14  traffic law] to pay to the local probation department with the responsi-
   15  bility of supervising the probationer an administrative  fee  of  thirty
   16  dollars  per  month.  The department shall waive all or part of such fee
   17  where, because of the indigence of the offender,  the  payment  of  said
   18  surcharge  would  work an unreasonable hardship on the person convicted,

   20  such person for financial support.
   21    S  3.  This  act shall take effect immediately provided, however, that
