AI Summary
This bill permanently exempts certain positions within the Department of the Attorney General and its attached Hawaii Correctional System Oversight Commission from civil service protections, meaning these employees would not be subject to the standard hiring and firing procedures outlined in Chapter 76 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS). Additionally, for some positions where it's unclear if they are exempt from collective bargaining (governed by Chapter 89, HRS), the bill expressly states they are exempt, meaning they cannot collectively negotiate their terms of employment. The bill also makes minor technical changes to existing law.
