Conflict of Interest

, Government Sections 81000, et seq., requires 好色先生 (CSU), as an agency, to adopt and promulgate COI codes. The CSU鈥檚 COI code requires employees in designated positions, including those identified under the interim disclosure process to file a Statement of Economic Interests (Form 700) on an annual basis. In addition, select consultants hired through the procurement process are also required to file a Statement of Economic Interests (Form 700) on an annual basis.

The Political Reform Act of 1974 contains a general prohibition against conflicts of听interest in public decision making, as well as a provision for the adoption of a CSU听conflict of interest code. It prevails over any other conflict of interest law. (Gov鈥檛 Code听搂 81013) The restrictions of this Act apply to all CSU employees, without regard to听whether they are required to file an annual conflict of interest form.听

鈥淣o public employee at any level of state or local government shall make,听participate in making, or in any way attempt to use his [or her] official听position to influence a governmental [CSU] decision in which [s/he] knows or听has reason to know [s/he] has a financial interest.鈥� (Gov鈥檛 Code 搂 87100)

Any person who willfully violates the general prohibition is guilty of a misdemeanor. (Gov鈥檛 Code 搂 91000) This prohibition applies to all CSU employees.听听

The CSU Conflict of Interest code requires all CSU employees in a designated position and interim disclosure positions to file a Statements of Economic Interests (Form 700) on an annual basis and take the Conflict of Interest (COI) Training within 6 months of assuming office, and then every two years after.
