29 performance of such officer or employee, or to maintain appropriate sala-
30 ry relationships among officers or employees of the state, or to reduce
31 state expenditures to acceptable levels, or when such increase is not
32 warranted or is not appropriate for any reason and the salary of such
33 officer or employee is set at the discretion of the appointing authority.

2 or redeployment of staff, provided, however, that such officer or

25 agency for personal service or for other related employee benefits
26 during such fiscal year. To the extent that such appropriations in any
27 fund are insufficient to accomplish the purposes herein set forth, the
28 director of the budget is authorized to allocate to the various depart-
29 ments and agencies, from any appropriations available in any fund, the
30 amounts necessary to pay such amounts.
31 S 11. Effect of participation in special annuity program. No officer
32 or employee participating in a special annuity program pursuant to the
33 provision of article 8-C of the education law shall, by reason of an
34 increase in compensation pursuant to this act, suffer any reduction of
35 the salary adjustment to which that employee would otherwise be entitled
36 by reason of participation in such program, and such salary adjustment
37 shall be based upon the salary of such officer or employee without
38 regard to the reduction authorized by such article.

42 added to the salary or compensation of such officer or employee at the
43 beginning of that payroll period the first day of which is nearest to

45 beginning of the earlier of two payroll periods the first days of which
46 are nearest but equally near to the effective date of such increase as
47 provided in this act, provided, however, that for the purposes of deter-
48 mining the salary of such officer or employee upon reclassification,
49 reallocation, appointment, promotion, transfer, demotion, reinstatement
50 or other change of status, such salary increase shall be deemed to be
51 effective on the date thereof as prescribed in this act, and the payment
52 thereof pursuant to this section on a date prior thereto, instead of on
53 such effective date, shall not operate to confer any additional salary
54 rights or benefits on such officer or employee.
55 S 13. 1. Notwithstanding the provisions of any other section of this
56 act or any other provision of law to the contrary, any increase in
S. 5846 25 A. 8513

7 chapter 732 of the laws of 1988, as amended, may be withheld in whole or
8 in part from any officer or employee when, in the opinion of the direc-
9 tor of the budget, such withholding is necessary to reflect the job
10 performance of such officer or employee, or to maintain appropriate
11 salary relationships among officers or employees of the state, or to
12 reduce state expenditures to acceptable levels or when, in the opinion
13 of the director of the budget, such increase is not warranted or is not
14 appropriate.
15 2. Notwithstanding the provisions of any other section of this act,
16 the salary increases and lump sum payments provided for in this act
17 shall not be implemented until the director of the budget delivers
18 notice to the comptroller that such amounts may be paid.
19 3. Notwithstanding the provisions of any other section of this act or
20 any other provisions of law, for state officers and employees in the
21 executive branch who are in positions which are not in collective nego-
22 tiating units, the director of the budget shall have the authority to
23 devise and implement a plan to reduce the basic annual salary, hourly
24 rate or per diem of any such employee for the time and by the rate
25 established by such plan for the time period specified in such plan.
26 Such plan shall contain salary schedules appropriate for the plan and
27 such other provisions necessary for the implementation and continued
28 execution of the plan for the period established by the plan. After the
29 cessation of such plan, the salary, rate or per diem shall be restored
30 to the amount in effect immediately before the commencement of such
31 plan.

33 as may be necessary, are hereby appropriated from the fund so designated

38 available for expenditure from this appropriation until a certificate of
39 approval has been issued by the director of the budget and a copy of
