Section 18734 - Designated Employees and Consultants - Positions Pending Code Amendment

(a) New Positions and Consultants -- Interim Disclosure: Consultants and newly created positions as set forth in Regulation 18219 that make or participate in the making of decisions that may foreseeably have a material effect on any financial interest shall file interim disclosure under this category.

(b) Disclosure Requirements: Persons in positions specified in subdivision (a) of this regulation shall file under the broadest disclosure category in the agency's conflict-of-interest code until the agency amends its code to reflect the position. However, the agency may determine that the broadest disclosure is not necessary and set interim disclosure that is more tailored to positions with a limited range of duties. This determination shall include a description of the position's duties and, based upon that description, a statement of the extent of disclosure requirements.

(c) Public Records: Records pertaining to positions that file under this category are public records and must be retained for the public's inspection in the same manner and location as the agency's conflict-of-interest code as set forth in Section 81008(a). This includes any written documents that support a limited disclosure category.

(d) Time of Filing: Persons in positions specified in this regulation shall file an initial statement within 30 days of assuming office and shall continue to file annually in the same manner and location specified in the agency's conflict-of-interest code.

(e) Annual Statement: Any statement filed under this provision is deemed to satisfy the requirement of Section 87302(b), which requires that an initial or annual statement be filed.

(f) Nothing in this regulation shall be construed to exempt any agency from complying with provisions of Section 87306.

(g) Effective Date: This regulation shall be effective January 1, 2010.
