(B) transfer, or request the Commissioner to transfer,
the employee to perform duties in another Agency;
or
(c) terminate the employee's employment.
(2) The employee must comply with an order made under

(3) The merit principle and section 36(3) do not apply in relation to a
transfer under subsection (1)(b)(iii).

section 46(1)(b)(iii) that results in a reduction in the employee's designation.
