This may include Agency sponsored Committees/Meetings dealing with the above subjects.
2. The right to meet and confer will apply to all levels of management within the SCNG and within the Union, starting with the Union ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (if one is assigned) and the first level supervisor. It is the intent of the Parties to meet and confer at the lowest level for problem resolution.

This includes Agency sponsored Committees/Meetings dealing with the subjects herein.

The State Representative or designee will be given reasonable notice of and will be provided reasonable time to be present at meetings or formal discussions concerning any grievance, personnel policy or practice, or other general condition of employment.
