    10  governing transfers between positions in their respective  jurisdictions

    11  and  may  also  adopt  reciprocal  rules  providing  for the transfer of
    12  employees from one governmental jurisdiction  to  another.  No  employee

    18  of subdivision one of this section or any other provision  of  law,  the
    19  county  of  Suffolk may, by agreement negotiated between such county and
    20  an employee organization pursuant to article fourteen of  this  chapter,
    21  provide  for  the  transfer  of now existing Suffolk county parks police

    22  officers levels I-IV to positions of Suffolk county police officers. The
    23  transfer of now existing positions may be effectuated without regard  to
    24  any eligible lists or preferred lists for reinstatement.
