The Political Reform Act (Government Code Section 81000, et seq.) requires state and local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict-of-interest codes. The Fair Political Practices Commission has adopted a regulation (2 California Code of Regulations 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 Fair Political Practices Commission to conform to amendments in the Political Reform Act. Therefore, the terms of 2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730 and any amendments to it duly adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission 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 Department of Industrial Relations (Department).
Individuals holding designated positions shall file their statements of economic interests with the Department, which will make the statements available for public inspection and reproduction. (Gov. Code Sec. 81008.) Upon receipt of the statement for the Director, the Department shall make and retain a copy and forward the original to the Fair Political Practices Commission. The Department shall forward copies of all other statements for appointed members of multi-member boards and commissions to the Fair Political Practices Commission.
