MEMORANDUM FOR THE HEADS OF
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
Subject: Conflicts of Interest and Ethical Standards of Conduct
Legislation enacted by the last Congress (P. L. 87-849) to revise and
strengthen the laws relating to bribery and conflicts of interest of Gov-
ernment personnel becomes effective today, An interpretation of this
law prepared by the Department of Justice will be distributed to all de-
partments and agencies within the next few days.
Each department and agency is requested to review its regulations cov-
ering conflicts of interest and ethical conduct to ensure that they are
consistent with the new law and that they make full use of the provisions
in that law which permit the Government more readily to employ experts
from outside the Government with appropriate safeguards. In this con-
nection each department and agency should be guided by the minimum
standards for department and agency regulations contained in Mr. Dutton's
memorandum of July 20, 196], to the heads of departments and agencies
and, where applicable, by the provisions of Executive Order No. 10939.
Each department and agency head is requested to submit to me by March
11, ' 1963 two copies of revised regulations as well as a statement of the
means by which they are periodically called to the attention of employees.
A revision of my memorandum of February 9, 1962, on preventing conflicts
of interest on the part of advisers and consultants to the Government-is in
preparation and will be issued in the near future.
It is appropriate as the new statute becomes effective to reaffirm the prin-
ciple that all government officers and employees must act with integrity,
impartiality and devotion to the public interest.
