659 - Reconsideration of wage orders and regulations.

 
    §  659.  Reconsideration  of  wage orders and regulations.  1. By wage
  board. At any time after a minimum wage order has been in effect for six
  months or more, the commissioner, on his own motion or on a petition  of
  fifty  or  more  residents  of  the  state engaged in or affected by the
  occupation or occupations to which an order is applicable, may reconvene
  the same wage board or appoint a new wage board to recommend whether  or
  not  the minimum wage and regulations prescribed by such order should be
  modified, and the provisions of section six hundred  fifty-five  through
  six hundred fifty-seven shall thereafter apply.
    2.  By  commissioner.  The  commissioner, without referral to the wage
  board, may, at any time after public  hearing,  by  order  propose  such
  modifications  of  or  additions  to  any  regulations  as  he  may deem
  appropriate to effectuate  the  purposes  of  this  article.  Notice  of
  hearing  and  promulgation  of  any  such  order  shall  be published in
  accordance  with  the  provisions  contained  in  section  six   hundred
  fifty-six.    Such  order  shall  be  effective  thirty  days after such
  publication and section six hundred fifty-seven shall thereafter apply.
