Cal. Code Regs. tit. 2 § 599.885
The Political Reform Act (Government Code [GC] sections 81000, et seq.) requires state and local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict of interest codes. The Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) has adopted a regulation (Title 2, Division 6, of the California Code of Regulations (CCR), section 18730) that contains the terms of a standard conflict of interest code, which can be incorporated by reference in an agency's code. After public notice and hearing, the standard code may be amended by the FPPC to conform to amendments in the Political Reform Act. Therefore, the terms of Title 2, Division 6, of the CCR, section 18730, and any amendments thereto duly adopted by the FPPC are hereby incorporated by reference.
This regulation and the attached Appendices designating positions and establishing disclosure categories shall constitute the conflict of interest code of the California Department of Human Resources (CalHR).
Individuals holding designated positions shall file their statements of economic interests with CalHR, which will make the statements available for inspection and reproduction (GC section 81008.) Upon receipt of the statements of the Executive Director, the Savings Plus Administrator, the members of the Investment Committee and Alternates, and the consultants who manage public investments, CalHR shall make and retain a copy, and forward the original of these statements to the FPPC. Statements for all other designated positions will be retained by CalHR.
