MEMORANDUM

TO: Designated Agency Ethics Officials Inspectors General

FROM: Barbara A. Mullen-Roth Associate Director for Education

SUBJECT: 1996 Annual Government Ethics Conference

We are beginning to plan the program for this year's annual conference in Philadelphia, PA, September 9-12, 1996. In order to produce the best possible program for the ethics community, your input is important. Please use the attached form to identify the topics and issues that your agency would like to see covered in concurrent sessions as well as any suggestions you may have for plenary session topics and speakers.

Because of the uncertainty surrounding this year's budget, it is important for us to know how many employees your agency expects to send to the 1996 conference. In estimating the number of employees your agency expects to send, assume the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) will not restrict the number of slots allocated to your agency. Additionally, we will work to keep the registration fee close to that charged for the last two conferences ($235.00).

Please provide your input no later than Friday, March 15, 1996, by faxing the attached form to Sheila Powers, Conference Coordinator, at 202-523-1251. Please note this is NOT a registration form. We are looking forward to hearing from you and putting together another successful conference. Thank you for your interest and prompt reply.
