57 FR 11800: Financial Disclosure, Qualified Trusts, and Certificates of Divestiture For Executive Branch Employees

This interim regulation implements provisions of the Ethics Reform Act of 1989 ("the Reform Act") and related legislation pertaining to executive branch employees which modified public financial disclosure requirements and amended the availability of and procedures for certification of qualified blind and diversified trusts. Additionally, subpart I of part 2634 of this interim regulation establishes, effective October 5, 1992, a revised system of confidential (nonpublic) financial disclosure reporting for certain midlevel employees of the executive branch, pursuant to the Reform Act and Executive Order 12674. Once subpart I becomes effective, this regulation will delete the current executive branch confidential reporting regulation at 5 CFR part 735, subpart D and § 735.106, and agencies' implementing regulations will then be superseded. Agencies should carefully review existing regulations which they may have on both public and confidential financial disclosure to determine whether revocation or modification is required.
