Bill Summary
Changes classification of State Investigators in civil service.
AI Summary
This bill changes the classification of State Investigators within the civil service from the unclassified service, meaning they served at the pleasure of the Attorney General and could be removed without cause, to the career service, which provides greater job protection and is part of the established civil service system. This change will apply to all current State Investigators in the Division of Criminal Justice, ensuring they are transitioned from the unclassified to the career service. The bill also maintains that these investigators will continue to possess the powers and obligations of police officers in criminal matters.
