MEMORANDUM
TO: Designated Agency Ethics Officials
FROM: Stephen D. Potts
Director
SUBJECT: Agency Supplemental Standards Regulations
Attached is a list of the 44 agencies that have advised the
Office of Government Ethics (OGE) that they intend to issue
supplemental agency regulations under 5 C.F.R. § 2635.105 (as well
as § 2634.103 in certain cases). The list indicates the chapter of
title 5 of the Code of Federal Regulations that has been reserved
for each agency's supplemental. As indicated by the Federal
Register citations, seven agency ethical conduct standards
supplementals have been published. We are in the process of
discussions concerning drafts that have been submitted by 18 other
agencies and have yet to receive an initial draft from 19 of the
agencies listed.
Most of the drafts we have received contain provisions that
would prohibit the holding of certain financial interests or
require prior approval for outside employment. Many will continue
prohibitions or requirements that have been "grandfathered" through
February 3, 1994, by the notes following 5 C.F.R. §§ 2635.403(a)
and 2635.803.
To ensure that grandfathered provisions of agency standards of
conduct regulations do not lapse before agencies that wish to do so
have had an opportunity to incorporate them into supplemental
regulations, OGE is willing, by rulemaking action, to grandfather
for an additional year the provisions preserved by the notes
following sections 2635.403(a) and 2635.803. We intend to do so,
however, only for those agencies that have been assigned chapters
in title 5 of the C.F.R. for their agency supplementals. If your
agency intends to issue a supplemental but is not listed on the
attachment, you should notify OGE before December 31, 1993, if you
would like the benefit of such an extension. You may do so simply
by contacting Bill Gressman on 202-523-5757, extension 1110. If
your agency is one of those listed which has not yet issued an
interim or final rule, and if you do not wish to have financial
interest prohibitions or prior approval requirements in your agency
standards of conduct regulations grandfathered for an additional
year, please provide written notification to OGE to that effect by
December 31.
We encourage those drafting agency standards supplementals to
rely for purposes of format on the Interstate Commerce Commission's
supplemental at 58 Fed. Reg. 41989-41991 (Aug. 6, 1993) or, in the
case of more extensive regulations, on the Department of the
Treasury's proposed supplemental at 58 Fed. Reg. 41193-41203
(Aug. 3, 1993). Please do not hesitate to contact Leslie Wilcox on
202-523-5757, extension 1106 for additional drafting assistance.
