Memorandum
Please identify any areas of vagueness, technical defects, reasons a bill would not have a fiscal impact, and/or any special issues not captured elsewhere on this form.
ยง5-16-3(g) - Generally, when legislation is enacted that exempts positions within an agency, employees currently classified remain classified until the position is vacated. This would appear to only be an issue if the agency is continued for a period of time beyond July 2025. "Department" of Personnel should be "Division".
No other areas of vagueness, technical defects or special issues were identified.
