Subject: RE: [oasis-board-comment] Re: [board-agenda] Conflict of Interest Policy Final Draft
Jeff: I see your point. However, I wonder if it should be tidied up further: surely it should be: "...if the affected member or officer does not agree that a Conflict of Interest may have arisen, then that person shall leave the Board meeting..." Unless the Board member concerned states that there *is* a conflict and until the Board deliberates (the subject of the next phrase in the section), there is only the presumption that a CoI *may* have arisen. BTW, The para is in Article III section 2, not 3 Cheers, Peter -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Mischkinsky [mailto:jeff.mischkinsky@oracle.com] Sent: Wednesday, 09 March, 2011 12:47 To: oasis-board-comment@lists.oasis-open.org Cc: board-agenda@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [oasis-board-comment] Re: [board-agenda] Conflict of Interest Policy Final Draft hi, i think there is a bug in the wording in Article III, section 3: The intent, if i understand it correctly, is that if the person agrees that there is a conflict of interest, then no further action has to be taken by the board to determine if one exists. It is only in the case that the person disagrees that there is a Conflict that the board has to discuss and make a determination. That is not what the draft policy says. So i think that in the 2nd sentence of III/3 the words "or possible" should be deleted: Immediately afterwards, if the affected member or officer does not agree that an actual ***or possible *** Conflict of Interest exists, then that person shall leave the Board meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. cheers, jeff On Mar 09, 2011, at 11:35 AM, Lipton, Paul C wrote: > Hello, > > As you remember, an earlier draft of the Conflict of Interest Policy > was submitted in advance of the February Board meeting to allow time > for comment.
