Section 7400.4 - Deletion of one or more items of information from the copy of the financial disclosure statement made available to the public
Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 12, March 20, 2024
(a) Definitions.
(b) Scope. Pursuant to section 40.1(i)(6) of the rule, the commission shall permit an employee who is required to file a financial disclosure statement to request that the commission delete from the copy of the financial disclosure statement made available for public inspection one or more items of information. This request will be granted by the commission upon a finding by a majority of the total number of its members without vacancy that the information that would otherwise be required to be made available for public inspection will have no material bearing on the discharge of the employee's official duties.
(c) Procedure.
(d) Commission action.
Judiciary Law, section 211(4) and Part 40 of this Title establish a strong public policy favoring disclosure. Thus employees otherwise required to file, who have requested deletions, must demonstrate that an individual exception to this policy is warranted.
