This bill amends section 54-44.3-20 of the North Dakota Century Code, which outlines the categories of positions in the state service that are exempt from the employee classification system. The amendment retains most of the existing exemptions while specifically deleting the exemption for "investment and fiscal operations positions of the state retirement and investment office necessary for the management of the investment of funds under the control of the state investment board." This change indicates a shift in how these positions are classified, potentially bringing them under the employee classification system.

Additionally, the bill repeals section 54-52.5-04 of the North Dakota Century Code, which previously related to an incentive compensation plan for the state retirement and investment office. The repeal suggests a move away from this incentive structure, possibly indicating a broader reform in how the state manages compensation and classification for its employees, particularly in the context of investment and fiscal operations.
