MEMORANDUM

TO: Designated Agency Ethics Officials, General Counsels, Inspectors General, and Department and Agency Printing Officers

FROM: Stephen D. Potts Director

SUBJECT: Publication of The Ethics CD - October 1995 Edition


The U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE) is pleased to announce the publication and availability of the second update to The Ethics CD. This latest edition of The Ethics CD, dated October 1995, contains the latest documents issued by OGE up through September 30, 1995, including the 1994 OGE advisory opinions, DAEOgrams, Federal Register Notices, and the new SF 450 confidential financial disclosure software.

The new edition of The Ethics CD is a multimedia version that includes preview sample video and audio clips from four ethics videos: The Ethical Choice: Ethics for Special Government Employees; Public Financial Disclosure: A Closer Look; Guide to the Standards of Ethical Conduct for Employees of the Executive Branch; and Integrity in Public Service: Earning the Public's Trust. Each video lasts three to four minutes and includes complete ordering and pricing information. Although the CD-ROM is capable of running on either a DOS or Windows-based personal computer, a Windows-based PC with a sound card is necessary to view the video clips.

OGE plans to continue publishing six-month updates to The Ethics CD in April and October of each year. Each new issue contains all the information from the previous issue, plus whatever documents OGE has issued since the last update. Also, we hope to initiate an annual subscription service with the Government Printing Office (GPO), which should make it easier to get the updates and decrease their cost.

The Ethics CD, GPO Stock Number: 052-003-01434-3, is only available by ordering through the GPO, Superintendent of Documents' order line, 202-512-1800. Orders may also be faxed to 202-512-2250 but ONLY if you pay by Visa, MasterCard, or Purchase Order. Please do not call OGE to place your orders.
