California State University: employer-employee relations: meeting and conferring.
What changed between versions
Removed subsection (c), which stated that the section does not relieve CSU from complying with its obligations under a collectively bargained agreement negotiated with a labor organization and duly ratified by the parties. This removal could weaken the explicit protection ensuring CSU must honor existing ratified agreements regardless of the funding determination process.
Changed the body that makes the written determination of whether the Legislature or Governor has failed to fully fund a memorandum or take requisite curative action. The Assembly version assigned this role to the Director of Finance; the Senate version assigns it to the Public Employment Relations Board (PERB). This shifts the determination from a fiscal office to the state's labor relations agency.
Multiple references changed from plural 'memoranda' to singular 'memorandum,' indicating that individual memoranda of understanding can now be evaluated and referred back separately rather than requiring the entire set to be treated as one unit when funding is not approved.
