I intend to do since I'm a member of the cabinet is to make sure <br />that each one of them did have some kind of training because like I <br />said trying is a good thing and I intend to use this checklist as an <br />aid because sometimes you know people have to think quickly <br />whether you know they're in a particular area or not a conflict <br />okay.. So this checklist is a great way to remind people of what <br />their duties and responsibilities are in relation to the Code of <br />Ethics. <br />Ms. Kahakalau: Thank you very much for that. One of the reasons this came up . <br />basically is because of the change in the statute that happened last <br />summer and we're still kind of trying to figure out how to make <br />that statute work so that people like we have somebody today <br />that's come here multiple times already and it's kind of humbug in <br />a way right so one of the things for us was you know to while <br />we're doing the training and also to have these discussions with the <br />people that are on the ground that are being affected by this new <br />statute....to see what is working and what is not working so we can <br />communicate back to the County Council and perhaps have some <br />modifications to make the process flow better. So that was one of <br />the.... so it wasn't necessarily that we thought that people weren't <br />being trained or you know but we wanted be proactive on side but <br />on the other side already addressed this new statute that kind of is <br />making it a little bit difficult for some people because of the <br />relation you know with the husband and wife and they're working <br />with the County. I don't know do we have any other... <br />Mr. Robinson: I just liked to say Mr. Kamelamela is it's refreshing to see you take <br />a proactive stance and try to get the information out there early so <br />that people are aware instead of us having to be the reactive <br />receivers of something that's happened after the fact. So that's <br />extremely helpful. Thank you for that. <br />Mr. Adams: I would just add to that ... I think that that's what we're also trying <br />to be it proactive .as well. I think one of the things that we've <br />discovered anything over the last few years is it's important that <br />our senior leaders in the County are aware of the provisions that <br />are part of the Code of Ethics right and we want to be open to <br />those kinds of conversations whether it's in here but it doesn't <br />necessarily have to be in here and that ... those training settings <br />provide exactly as the Chair stated. The opportunity for <br />conversations about... whether it hypotheticals or concerns or <br />issues that allowed the leaders you know to address those things so <br />we want to make sure I think that we remain open to those <br />opportunities too. <br />11 <br />
