AI Summary
This bill updates state position titles to reflect modern terminology, changing "private secretary" to "executive assistant" and "secretary" to "administrative assistant" where applicable across various state statutes. This change aims to modernize job titles within the state government, making them more appealing to potential applicants and aligning them with current industry standards, as the term "secretary" is considered outdated. The bill specifically amends sections related to civil service positions, the chief procurement officer's support staff, and the paroling authority's administrative staff, among other provisions.
