	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1930, Gorell. Civil service examinations: announcement.
   The State Civil Service Act requires that eligible lists for state
civil service positions be established as a result of free
competitive examinations open to persons who lawfully may be
appointed and who meet the minimum qualifications. The act requires
the State Personnel Board or a designated appointing power to
advertise examinations for the establishment of eligible lists within
a reasonable time before the scheduled date of the exam.
   This bill would require the board to notify the Department of
Veterans Affairs when any promotional examination for the
establishment of an eligible list is announced or advertised to
eligible candidates.
