(1) At each institution, the warden shall designate staff representatives for inmates in disciplinary hearings at the institution.
(2) If an inmate or staff representative provides information and evidence to the warden that there is a conflict of interest in the case that would impair a staff representative's ability to perform his or her duties, the warden shall evaluate the information and evidence to determine if a different representative should be assigned.
(3) The role of the staff representative is to help the accused inmate understand the charges against the inmate and to provide direction and guidance regarding the disciplinary process.

The staff representative may speak on behalf of the accused inmate at a disciplinary hearing or may help the inmate prepare to speak.
