AN ACT


To amend Article 3 of Chapter 2 of Title 47 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to employee and employer contributions and creation of funds for contributions, benefits, and administrative expenses in the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia, so as to change a certain gender designation; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA:

SECTION 1.
Article 3 of Chapter 2 of Title 47 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to employee and employer contributions and creation of funds for contributions, benefits, and administrative expenses in the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia, is amended by revising Code Section 47-2-53, relating to effect of failure of any employee, employer, or reporting official to make contributions or to make reports with respect to employment and membership, as follows:
"47-2-53.
Any other provisions of law to the contrary notwithstanding, if any employee, his or her employer, or the designated reporting official fails to make such reports properly as are required under this chapter with respect to employment or membership or to make contributions, the board of trustees, after having exhausted all administrative efforts to obtain such reports or contributions, is authorized to and shall declare null and void any and all benefits which would have otherwise accrued to the employee if the proper reports and contributions had been made, provided that those contributions which had been previously credited to the individual's annuity savings fund shall be forthwith refunded. In addition, such individual shall no longer be a member nor henceforth be eligible for membership."

SECTION 2.
All laws and parts of laws in conflict with this Act are repealed.
