to read:

new text begin Compensation for law enforcement officers. new text end

(a) For purposes of this
subdivision, the term "law enforcement officers" means Minnesota State Patrol troopers,
Bureau of Criminal Apprehension agents, special agents in the gambling enforcement
division of the Department of Public Safety, conservation officers, Department of Corrections
fugitive specialists, and Department of Commerce insurance fraud specialists.

(b) When the commissioner of management and budget negotiates a collective bargaining

equity data constitutes bad faith in negotiations.
