Since employees of State Use Industries continue to be affected by Ch. 22,
Acts of 1993, § 3 and Ch. 33, Acts of 1994, § 3, the substance of those
provisions was reenacted by Ch. _, Acts of 1999, which also enacted
this revision.
The Correctional Services Article Review Committee notes, for
consideration by the General Assembly, that the first clause of subsection
(c) of this section is apparently obsolete. None of the office secretaries or
office clerks currently employed by State Use Industries are "special
appointments". According to the General Manager of State Use Industries
and the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, it is
unlikely that office secretaries or office clerks would ever be special
appointments. If this clause has any meaning, it would be to allow the
Secretary to designate the position identification number (PIN) of a
particular office clerk or office secretary as a special appointment. If this is
not what the General Assembly intended, the General Assembly may wish
to repeal the clause, "[u]nless the employee is a special appointment" in
subsection (c) of this section.
