JEREMY S. STEPHENS,
STATE PERSONNEL DIRECTOR
|
| SUBJECT: |
DRAFT AMENDMENTS TO RULES
|
Currently, Rule 1-1.4 authorizes the state personnel director (SPD), with the consent of the chair of the Commission, to approve interim amendments to the rules. This proposal would repeal Rule 1-1.4, thereby prohibiting the SPD from approving interim rule amendments.
If Rule 1-1.4 is repealed as proposed, the SPD would also lose the authority to give interim approval to letters of understanding (LOUs) amending collective bargaining agreements (CBAs). Staff proposes that the SPD retain the authority to give interim approval to LOUs. Therefore, this proposal adds a revised version of Rule 1-1.4 to Rule 6-14 to expressly authorize interim approval of LOUs by the SPD with the consent of the Chair.
The Civil Service Commission will consider the proposed amendments at its next meeting, scheduled for 10:00 a.m., Wednesday, September 23, 2009, Capitol Commons Center, 400 S. Pine Street, Lansing.
Comments regarding the proposed amendments may be addressed to Janet McClelland, Chief Deputy Director, Department of Civil Service, P.O. Box 30002, Lansing, Michigan, 48909, or e mail at
McClellandJ@michigan.gov.
Comments must be received by Wednesday, September 9, 2009.
