Upon initial assumption of duties, interested persons are provided with a copy of the conflict of interest policy and submit a conflict of interest disclosure statement. Thereafter, the statements will be completed annually. Periodically all staff members are asked to complete a conflict of interest disclosure statement. Internal and external auditors, General Counsel or outside counsel will periodically conduct a review of the disclosure process to determine whether the organization is in compliance with the policy.
