vetoed Senate Bill 516.

Senate Bill 516 would authorize a State employee to name the Department of Personnel
as an adverse party in an employee grievance. The bill also includes an uncodified section
intended to "clarify that the Department of Personnel may be a party in a grievance when

Under current law, an employee may only name the employee's appointing authority or
department in a grievance action pertaining to (1) a personnel policy or regulation
