190. No officer or employee of a municipality engaged full time in a field of jurisdiction acquired by the council of the regional county municipality in accordance with section 189 may be removed on the sole ground that that jurisdiction has been acquired.
The resolution removing an officer or employee contemplated in the first paragraph shall be served by handing a copy of the resolution to him in person; the person so removed may appeal from the decision to the Commission municipale du Québec, which shall decide finally after inquiry.
The appeal must be taken within fifteen days of the service of the resolution of the council.
If the appeal is upheld, the Commission municipale du Québec may also order the municipality to pay to the appellant such sum of money as it determines to indemnify him for the expenses he has incurred for such appeal; the order to that effect shall be homologated upon motion by the appellant by the Provincial Court or the Superior Court, according to their respective jurisdictions; the appellant may thereafter execute the judgment against the municipality.
