Name: 2006–2007 Ethics and Lobbying Reform: Applications and Implications for Local Governments, by A. Fleming Bell, II, and Norma R. Houston, October 2007. |
Discusses the potential effects of the State Government Ethics and Lobbying Reform Act (S.L. 2006-201) on local governments and local officials. It incorporates the latest substantive changes in the act made by the 2007 General Assembly. This new bulletin updates and replaces an earlier edition published as Local Government Law Bulletin No. 113 in June 2007.
The State Government Ethics and Lobbying Reform Act, which establishes ethical standards for the conduct of state officials in all three branches of government and imposes broad new regulations and restrictions on those officials and on individuals and entities that seek to influence their actions, also has important implications at the local level. This bulletin focuses on Parts I and III of the Act, which are concerned with ethical conflicts, gifts, and lobbying involving persons other than members of the General Assembly (who are the subject of Part II of the new law).
