Post-government employment restrictions and foreign agent registration : additional action needed to enhance implementation of requirements : report to congressional requesters.
There are laws to safeguard against former fed. employees, incl. former trade officials, from using their access to influence gov¿t. officials. These post-employment activities are restricted by a fed. conflict of interest law, known as the "Revolving Door" law. Two other laws -- the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) and the Lobbying Disclosure Act (LDA) -- require individuals conducting certain activities to publicly disclose them. This report provides a summary of the Revolving Door law, FARA, and LDA. The report interviewed ethics officials at 3 agencies whose missions focus on trade -- the U.S. Trade Rep., the Internat. Trade Admin., and the Internat. Trade Comm. -- and collected data on the number of senior officials who separated from these agencies from 2004-09.
The Model Rules of Professional Conduct provides an up-to-date resource for information on legal ethics. Federal, state and local courts in all jurisdictions look to the Rules for guidance in solving lawyer malpractice cases, disciplinary actions, disqualification issues, sanctions questions and much more. In this volume, black-letter Rules of Professional Conduct are followed by numbered Comments that explain each Rule's purpose and provide suggestions for its practical application. The Rules will help you identify proper conduct in a variety of given situations, review those instances where discretionary action is possible, and define the nature of the relationship between you and your clients, colleagues and the courts.
The Standards of Conduct Office of the Department of Defense General Counsel's Office has assembled an "encyclopedia" of cases of ethical failure for use as a training tool. These are real examples of Federal employees who have intentionally or unwittingly violated standards of conduct. Some cases are humorous, some sad, and all are real. Some will anger you as a Federal employee and some will anger you as an American taxpayer. Note the multiple jail and probation sentences, fines, employment terminations and other sanctions that were taken as a result of these ethical failures. Violations of many ethical standards involve criminal statutes. This updated (end of 2009) edition is organized by type of violations, including conflicts of interest, misuse of Government equipment, violations of post-employment restrictions, and travel.
