LETTER OF UNDERSTANDING #5 - COMMITTEE ON POLITICAL EDUCATION

During the current negotiations, the parties acknowledged the Civil Service Commission's current policy prohibiting payroll deduction and remittance for the purpose of contributing, voluntarily or otherwise, to a committee on political action. Accordingly, the parties jointly agreed not to conduct negotiations over the subject at this time.

However, the parties also agreed that, in the event the Civil Service Commission Policy is amended to permit such payroll deduction and remittance, upon the request of the Union, and subject to such limitations as the Civil Service Commission may establish, payroll deduction will be implemented.
