Gov. Code, § 11569

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this chapter or of any statute specifying the salary to be paid to any state officer, in any fiscal year for which the Legislature appropriates additional funds to augment the salaries paid to state officers whose salaries are specified by statute, each such statutory salary for that fiscal year shall be the amount so specified plus an amount which constitutes an equal percentage increase for each officer. No such increase shall be paid to any officer whose salary is subject to Section 68203 of the Government Code. If any constitutional provision prevents an increase during the term of office of a position, the increase shall not become operative as to that position before the commencement of the next succeeding term of office, as provided in Section 11567.

The secretaries and other personnel of the Governor appointed pursuant to Section 12001 shall be regarded as state officers for purposes of determining the salaries of state officers pursuant to this section and the Governor may fix the salary of each person at an amount not to exceed the maximum for such position set forth in Section 12001 plus a percentage equal to the increase authorized for statutory salaries under this section.
