In plain language
A translation table, and the most practically useful section in the chapter. Wherever any law, rule, regulation, order, contract, court or administrative proceeding, appropriation or other document refers to the Department of Personnel, the Commissioner of Personnel or the Merit System Board, it now means the Department of the Treasury, the State Treasurer, the Civil Service Commission, the Department of Health or the Department of Human Services, as the 2008 act directs. If an older notice or job specification names a body that no longer exists, this is what tells you who it means now.
