Section 41-5-8

Assistant chief examiner.

The Chief Examiner of Public Accounts may, with the approval of the Legislative Committee on Public Accounts, appoint an assistant chief examiner, who shall exercise such authority and perform such duties as the Chief Examiner may prescribe. The assistant chief examiner shall be selected because of his fitness and capacity. He must be some person who is eligible for appointment to, or holds the position of, public accounts examiner II in the classified service of the state; and he must have had not less than eight years, actual experience as an examiner of public accounts; provided, however, that the Chief Examiner may, at his discretion, have the employee so appointed revert to the classification previously held by him under the classified service and appoint some other employee, qualified under the provisions of this section, as assistant chief examiner. The assistant chief examiner shall be in the unclassified service of the state as defined in the Merit System Act.
