  assistance to the territory regularly served by an ambulance  department
  or ambulance companies described in subdivisions one to five, inclusive,
  of  section  thirty of this chapter and, for the purposes of determining

  worker  shall  be  considered  as  a  volunteer  member of the ambulance
  department or ambulance company of the territory for which  service  has

  that the laws of the state served by such volunteer  ambulance  workers,
  ambulance  departments  or  ambulance  companies,  or of the Dominion of
  Canada, as the case may be, contain provisions under which benefits  are
  granted in relation to volunteer ambulance workers of this state who are

  ambulance  worker of such other states or of the Dominion of Canada, any
  amounts recoverable by or payable to  such  volunteer  ambulance  worker
  under the laws of the state served by such volunteer ambulance worker or
  of the Dominion of Canada, as the case may be.

  had been rendered in or for the area regularly served by such  volunteer
  ambulance workers.
