ReviewBoards (Continued from Page 1) Department heads will prepare for the review board, alter which each department will be given an opportunity to appear personally to support his memorandum. Civ vil Service Director Terry said. State payrolls, carrying present salaries and classifications plus the proposed salaries and classifica tions as recommended in the Bar rington report, are now being pre pared and will be forwarded to the department heads within next week. Public hearings will be held by the sub-committee. Dr. Eaton an nounced, when department heads and individual employes will be t'iven tn opportunity of discussing policy matters relating to thej Barringlon report. Time does not permit the com mittee to go into individual pay or classification protests, Dr. Eat on said, but every effort will be made to allow state employes to discuss the general effect of the plan on any particular depart ment or any other policy matter re lating to the plan. If the recommendations of the Barrington report are adopted, either as recommended or with modification and changes, the plan would become effective on July, 1, 1955, it was announced. Such an effective date would be nec essary, he said, because addition al funds must be approbated to carry out 'the plan, should it meet with legislative approval. More than 100 department and agency heads present at the meet ing, Monday, heard the review board plan outlined, and obtained clarification of numerous ques tions relating to matters that may be presented to the review board. Civil Service Director Terry made it clear that any request for review must carry with H in formation that will support a re quest for a change either in the new classification or the proposed pay schedule.
