RS 23:2209
§2209. Conflicts of interest
A. A board member shall recuse himself pursuant to R.S. 42:1112(C) from voting and discussions in any matter in which the board member, a member of his immediate family as defined by R.S. 42:1102(13), or an entity of which the board member or a member of his immediate family is an owner, officer, director, partner, or employee, and has a substantial economic interest as defined by R.S. 42:1102(21) due to involvement as an employer in any program or service that is under the supervision or jurisdiction of the board.
The existence of such relationships shall not preclude a person from being a board member, but recusal from voting and discussion in such matters shall be required to avoid any violation of R.S. 42:1111(C)(2)(d), 1112, or 1113(B) that otherwise would result. This provision shall not be construed to authorize engaging in transactions under the supervision or jurisdiction of the board other than utilization of workforce related services and programs.
B. Prior to a discussion, vote, or decision on any matter before a board, if recusal by a board member is required by Subsection A of this Section, that member shall disclose the nature and extent of the interest and the relationship. All such disclosures shall be recorded in the minutes of the board meeting.
C. Prior to taking office, board members shall provide to the board a written declaration of all contractual and other business, financial, or other relationships between the board and the board member, any member of his immediate family, or any entity of which the board member or a member of his immediate family is an owner, officer, director, partner, or employee. Such declarations shall be updated within forty days of any changes in such relationships. The board shall appoint an individual to timely review the disclosure information and advise the board chair and appropriate members of potential conflicts.
