House Bill No. by Representative Kerner seeks to amend and reenact specific provisions related to the state examiner and deputy state examiner of municipal fire and police civil service in Louisiana. The bill establishes the roles of the state examiner and deputy state examiner, both of whom must be residents and qualified voters of the state with experience in personnel administration, classification, or employment testing in a classified civil service system. The state examiner will receive a salary set by the State Civil Service Commission and will be compensated for travel and living expenses while away from home.

Significant changes include the removal of specific pay range assignments for both the state examiner and deputy state examiner positions, allowing for more flexibility in salary determination. The previous stipulation that the state examiner's position be assigned to the same pay range as the deputy director of state civil service has been deleted, as well as the requirement that the deputy state examiner's position be two levels below that of the deputy director. This bill aims to streamline the compensation structure for these roles while ensuring that both positions are filled by qualified individuals.
