Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
Whenever a designated employee appeals a provision of the
					 employing agency's Conflict of Interest Code pursuant to Section
					 87307, the
					 code reviewing body may, in its discretion, suspend or modify the disclosure

					 87307 provides that whenever an
					 agency denies a request to amend its Conflict of Interest Code, the person
					 proposing the amendment may appeal the decision to the code reviewing body.
					 This regulation makes it clear that the code reviewing body has the authority
					 to suspend or modify the disclosure obligations of the appellant and persons
					 similarly situated in order to protect their rights to privacy during the
					 pendency of a legitimate appeal. This regulation, however, does not obligate
					 the code reviewing body to suspend or modify the appellant's or any other
					 person's disclosure obligations if the code reviewing body believes that such a
					 suspension or modification would not be in the best interests of the agency and
					 the public.
