MEMORANDUM

TO: Designated Agency Ethics Officials

FROM: Stephen D. Potts Director

SUBJECT: Annual Agency Ethics Program Questionnaire


Please complete and return the attached ethics program questionnaire to the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) by February 1, 1996. Your response to this questionnaire will constitute your annual report for 1995 as required by section 402(e)(1) of the Ethics in Government Act of 1978, as amended.

Please note the length and the content of the 1995 questionnaire differ somewhat from the previous year. Most notably, OGE shortened five sections:

 Resources;  Enforcement of Criminal and Civil Statutes;  Ethics Opinions, Advice, and Counseling;  Public Financial Disclosure; and  Confidential Financial Disclosure. You have the option of submitting the questionnaire electronically via diskette. If you should have any questions about the questionnaire or would like a copy of the diskette, please contact Sandy McKinzy at (202) 523-5757, extension 1212. Remember, the questionnaire covers the period January 1, 1995 through December 31, 1995 and failure to file on or before February 1, 1996, may be cause for OGE to invoke its corrective action authority (5 C.F.R. § 2638.602(b)). Please note that the information contained in the questionnaire is subject to the Freedom of Information Act. All completed questionnaires should be submitted directly to Sandy McKinzy.

TEBBS note: The 'Questionnarie' attachment is available in WordPerfect 6.0 format in the Files\Miscellaneous area.
