<br />Ms. Schoen: Yeah, okay. So I’m going to add a sentence - what I just stated. <br /> <br />b. Petition No. 2014-01: Review of draft informal advisory opinion regarding the <br />Petition by Michael Drutar on whether the Department of Finance may find a <br />violation of the Code of Ethics and sanction on the basis thereof. <br /> <br />Ms. Schoen: Mr. Chair, if I may. You know this draft was provided to the Board this morning. <br /> Ms. Noda who represented the Department of Finance had asked for a copy <br /> of the draft that the Board would be considering. That wasn’t provided to her and <br /> in large part because your rules say, all documents are to be held confidential until <br /> it’s reviewed by the Board at an open meeting. So I was uncomfortable yet she <br /> does have the right to see what the Board is going to consider and then, you know, <br /> maybe she has objections, additions, corrections that she might want to place on <br /> the record. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: May I make this suggestion that we go through a review process here. I believe <br /> time is not of the essence in the approval of this opinion. <br /> <br />Mr. Henricks: Not at all. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: So if we review it now we make any comments that we have on this and then you <br /> can refer that and you can finalize this at the next meeting. <br /> <br />Mr. Henricks: That would be par for the course you see because if she did want to make <br /> revisions to it, we would have to review it. If Ms. Noda wanted to make revisions <br /> we would have to come back and review the revision anyway. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: We’ll review that at the next meeting. <br /> <br />Mr. Adams: We’re going to have to. <br /> <br />Mr. Henricks: Yeah, I think so, therefore might as well just pass it on. <br /> <br />Ms. Schoen: In the meantime though, you know, if you all have any corrections, or additions <br /> you want to make… <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: Yeah, if we have any comments at this time. <br /> <br />Mr. Henricks: So in other words, just take it home and look at it and at the next meeting we’ll <br /> make the final review with any input from Ms. Noda. Is that alright? <br /> <br />Ms. Schoen: Okay. What I will do is provide this draft that I’ve provided to the Board to both <br /> Petitioner and Respondent and ask them to comment within a certain time period. <br /> <br />6 <br /> <br /> <br />
