SUMMARY : Specifically, this bill ratifies the provisions of a
memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the state and state
bargaining unit (BU) 7, Protective Services and Public Safety,
represented exclusively by the California Statewide Law
Enforcement Association.
EXISTING LAW requires, under the State Employee-Employer
Relations Act (the Dills Act), collective bargaining agreements
(MOUs) that are negotiated between the state and exclusive
representatives of each of the 21 state bargaining units be
ratified by the Legislature.
FISCAL EFFECT : According to the Assembly Appropriations
Committee, this fiscal impact will depend on the terms of any
agreement reached between the state and representatives of BU 7.
COMMENTS : This is a spot bill that will be used to approve the
final collective bargaining agreement reached this year between
the state and BU 7. The current MOU expired June 30, 2008.
