59 FR 4779: Additional Grace Period Extension for Certain Existing Agency Standards of Conduct

The Office of Government Ethics is granting an additional grandfathering grace period extension for up to one year for certain existing executive agency standards of conduct, dealing with financial interest prohibitions and prior approval for outside employment/activities, which have been temporarily preserved. This action is necessary because many agencies have not been able to develop, with OGE concurrence, supplemental regulations for such provisions during the first one-year grace period. This additional extension will help ensure that concerned agencies have adequate time to issue successor regulatory provisions to replace the restrictions noted.
