Chapter 5 - Insurance Commissioner
Subchapter 6 - The Department of Insurance Conflict-of-Interest Code
Section 2690 - Introduction
The Political Reform Act (Government Code Sections 81000, et seq.) requires state and local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict-of-interest codes. The Fair Political Practices Commission has adopted a regulation (2 Cal. Code of Regs. Sec. 18730) that contains the terms of a standard conflict-of-interest code, which can be incorporated by reference in an agency's code. After public notice and hearing, the standard code may be amended by the Fair Political Practices Commission to conform to amendments in the Political Reform Act. Therefore, the terms of 2 California Code of Regulations Section 18730 and any amendments to it duly adopted by the Fair Political Practices Commission are hereby incorporated by reference. This regulation and the attached Appendices, designating positions and establishing disclosure categories, shall constitute the conflict-of-interest code of the Department of Insurance (Department).
The Insurance Commissioner, Chief Deputy Insurance Commissioner, Members of the Curriculum Board, and Members of the Fraud Assessment Commission shall file their statements of economic interests electronically with the Fair Political Practices Commission. All other individuals holding designated positions must file their statements with the Department. All statements must be made available for public inspection and reproduction under Government Code Section 81008.
1. New Subchapter 6
(Sections 2690-2690.65) filed 5-2-77; effective thirtieth day thereafter. Approved
by Fair Political Practices Commission 3-17-77 (Register 77, No. 19).
2.
Repealer of section and new introductory paragraphs filed 10-17-95; operative
11-16-95. Approved by Fair Political Practices Commission 8-7-95. Submitted to OAL
for printing only (Register 95, No. 42).
3. Amendment of introductory
paragraphs filed 1-21-2003; operative 2-20-2003. Approved by Fair Political
Practices Commission 11-12-2002 (Register 2003, No. 4).
4. Amendment
filed 4-12-2010; operative 5-12-2010. Approved by Fair Political Practices
Commission 3-3-2010 (Register 2010, No. 16).
5. Amendment of section
heading and repealer and new section filed 3-4-2013; operative 4-3-2013 (FPPC
regulations only subject to 1974 Administrative Procedure Act rulemaking
requirements and not subject to procedural or substantive review by OAL). Approved
by Fair Political Practices Commission 1-15-2013 to replace the conflict-of-interest
code amendments filed on 4-12-2010 and 3-15-2012, which are both void due to the
agency's failure to properly follow the notice requirements of the Political Reform
Act. This conflict-of-interest code, which was originally effective on 12-15-2005,
and is, therefore, the most recently legally adopted code, replaces the voided
conflict-of-interest codes (Register 2013, No. 10).
