2 AAC 35.260
Effective 7/20/2006, Register 179, the Department of Administration readopted 2 AAC 35.260, without change, to affirm the validity of that section following statutory amendments made in ch. 9, FSSLA 2005. Chapter 9, FSSLA 2005 eliminated the Public Employees' Retirement Board, and largely transferred the board's authority to adopt regulations in 2 AAC 35 to the commissioner of administration.
