13  distribution from time to time to all eligible State
14  employees, of pamphlets describing the Plan and outlining the
15  options and opportunities available to State employees under

17  The Plan established under this Section shall not be
18  implemented or amended until the Board is satisfied that
19  compensation deferred under the Plan is not subject to income
20  tax for the year in which it is earned and that the taxation of
21  such compensation will be deferred until the time of its
22  distribution to the employee.
23  The Board shall also review and oversee the administration
24  of the Plan.
