Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. Section 1. In any case where the salary of a portion thereof
of any officer or employee of any county or city is paid by the State,
it shall be the duty of the Compensation Board when requested by
such county or city to withhold from such salary the employee con-
tribution required of officers and employees of the county or city
having a retirement system therefor.

Section 2. The officer in the county or city having such a retire-
ment plan who administers the same shall certify to the Compensation
Board the percentage or amount of compensation to be withheld as

who rejects membership in any such retirement plan.

Section 3. The Compensation Board shall at such times as the
chairman deems proper pay to the treasurer of the county or city
having such retirement plan the amount so withheld.
