§ 25. Powers  of  state civil service commission with respect to local  rules; appointments and eligible  lists.  1.  The  state  civil  service  commission may, by unanimous vote of the three members    (a)   amend   or   rescind  any  rule,  regulation  or  jurisdictional  classification prescribed by  a  municipal  commission,  but  shall  not  exempt  from competitive examination any office or position in any civil  division  without  the  consent  of  the  municipal  commission   having  jurisdiction;    (b)  rescind  any  appointment  in  the  classified service of a civil  division;    (c)  remove  from  any  eligible  list  established  by  a   municipal  commission the name of any person thereon; and    (d)  rescind any examination or eligible list or cancel an appointment  already made from a list so rescinded.    2. The state civil service commission, however, shall  not  take  such  action  upon  any  ground other than that the provisions of this chapter  are not properly or sufficiently carried out, nor without specifying  in  writing  the  particulars  in which such provisions are not carried out.  Before any such action is taken,  the  state  civil  service  commission  shall  state the reasons for such action in writing and file a certified  copy thereof in the office of the municipal commission concerned,  which  shall  be  a  public document therein, and shall give to such commission  and the person aggrieved thereby a  reasonable  opportunity  to  present  facts in opposition to such action.
