WHEREAS, as the result of an audit by the State Auditor of Accounts, confirmed in by the State Personnel Office, it was revealed that William L.

WHEREAS, the employee is entitled statutorily and by regulation of the State Personnel Office to the proper merit increases;

NOW, THEREFORE:

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Delaware:
