Section 140.0 - Statement of policy. [l. 19 67, chs. 86, 170; l. 1969, ch. 1126]l. 1967, chs. 86, 170; l. 1969, ch. 1126

Section 6-d of the State Finance Law, as added by chapter 1126 of the Laws of 1969, authorizes the reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by new technical, scientific, education, professional, or administrative appointees to a department or agency of the State in transporting themselves and their families and household effects to their new places of residence. It is the policy of the State that such reimbursement may be approved when, in the opinion of the Department of Civil Service, there exists in New York State a shortage of qualified candidates for the position to which the appointment would be made and when, in the opinion of the appointing officer concerned, providing for such reimbursement would improve the State's ability to consummate an appointment. It is not the policy of the State to reimburse such appointees for related expenses in relocation, such as selling and buying a house or renting temporary living quarters.
