This section basically says that if any part of this law is found to be invalid or doesn’t apply to someone or a situation, it doesn't throw the whole law out. The rest of the law still stands and can be used where applicable. This means each part of the law is separate and can stand alone if needed.
If any provision of this title or the application thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of the title which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this title are severable.

This law section explains that during the annual budget process, a baseline adjustment is given to an agency to cover California's two-thirds share of any increase in employee pay or cost-of-living adjustments, similar to what state agencies receive. If the way this adjustment is determined is different from usual state budget methods, the agency and the Department of Finance will collaborate to agree on how to apply this rule.
For purposes of the annual budget process, the agency shall be provided a baseline adjustment equivalent to fund California’s two-thirds share for any increase in employee compensation or cost-of-living adjustment, in the same manner as applied to state agencies. In those instances where the methodology for determining this adjustment differs from standard state budget practices, the agency and the Department of Finance shall work together on an agreed application of this section.
