The provisions of this article are not intended, nor may they be construed, to invalidate any other sections of this code which were enacted prior to the enactment of this article, relating to positions requiring certification qualifications or the classified service covered in Article 6 (commencing with Section 45240) of Chapter 5 of this part, unless specifically provided herein. This article shall where appropriate apply to districts that have adopted the merit system in the same manner and effect as if it were a part of Article 6 (commencing with Section 45240) of Chapter 5 of this part.
