Ch. 10

1993 LAWS OF MARYLAND

Former Art. 64A, § 9C, which provided that employees of the Department of
Legislative Reference and the Department of Fiscal Services are governed by
Title 2 of the State Government Article, is deleted as unnecessary given the
express provisions of that title.

Former Art. 64A, § 26, which provided for transfers of certain employees in
the legislative branch of State government to positions in other branches of
State government, is revised in SG § 2-14A-01.

Defined terms: "Position" § 1-101

"State Personnel Management System" § 1-101

1-206. OTHER POSITIONS.

THE STATE PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM INCLUDES ANY OTHER
POSITION THAT IS SPECIFIED BY LAW TO BE IN THE CLASSIFIED SERVICE, IN THE
UNCLASSIFIED SERVICE, OR OTHERWISE IN THE STATE PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language added to reflect other laws that
might provide for the inclusion in the State Personnel Management System of
other employees who might not ordinarily be considered part of the executive
branch of State government.

Defined terms: "Classified service" § 1-101
"Position" § 1-101

"State Personnel Management System" § 1-101
"Unclassified service" § 1-101

SUBTITLE 3. CLASSIFIED SERVICE.

1-301. POSITIONS IN THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH.

EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS TITLE OR OTHERWISE BY LAW, ALL POSITIONS
IN THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF STATE GOVERNMENT THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE
STATE PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM ARE IN THE CLASSIFIED SERVICE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language that, in part, is added to state
expressly that which formerly only was implied in the law — i.e., all State
Personnel Management System positions in the executive branch are in the
classified service unless specifically excepted — and, in part, is new language
based on the references to specific employees being included in the classified
service in former Art. 64A, § 7, § 9D, § 9E, § 9J, § 9J-1(a), (b), and (c), § 9J-2,
§ 9-O, §§ 9Q through 9U, § 9V(b)(2), § 9W, § 23, § 24B, § 24C, §§ 25A
through 25F, § 47, and § 51(m), as well as § 5, as it included police officers at
Morgan State University and Baltimore City Community College in the
classified service. These specific references, as well as other references in
these sections, to, for example, the transfers of employees or contributions to
the State Retirement System, are apparently unnecessary given the broadly
inclusive provisions of this section. However, to avoid any inadvertent
substantive effect on any employee, these provisions of former Art. 64A are
transferred to the Session Laws of Maryland.
