An idempotent semigroup $S$ is called left normal, resp. right normal, resp. normal if it satisfies the identity $abc=acb$, resp. $bca=cba$, resp. $abca=acba$. <P> Let $S=∪{S_γ;γ∈Γ}$ be the decomposition of $S$ in the sense of the paper reviewed above. The purpose of this note is to find necessary and sufficient conditions for $S$ to be left normal, resp. right normal, resp. normal. This is done by means of families of functions $φ_β^α\colon S_α\rightarrow S_β$ for $α>β$ and by means of the notion of the spined product (introduced in the foregoing paper).
