Conflict-of-Interest Questionnaires for Vendors
Chapter 176 of the Local Government Code requires the filing of Conflict-of-Interest Questionnaires by certain individuals and businesses. The law applies to businesses and individuals who contract with the District, businesses and individuals who seek to contract with Central Health (regardless of whether a bidder is awarded the contract), and agents who represent such businesses in their dealings with Central Health.
A vendor should use the questionnaire to disclose certain business and gift-giving relationships with the Board of Managers. A list of government officers about whom filers need to disclose is provided below. If a Conflict-of-Interest Questionnaire is not filed together with a proposal or other bid submitted to Central Health, a Conflict-of-Interest Questionnaire must be filed with the District no later than the seventh business day after the person becomes aware of facts that require a statement to be filed.
Filers are also required to complete and submit an updated completed questionnaire no later than the seventh business day after the date on which the originally-filed questionnaire becomes incomplete or inaccurate.
CONFLICT-OF-INTEREST STATEMENT FOR OFFICIALS
Members of the Central Health Board of Managers are required to file a Conflict-of-Interest Statement if they or certain family members have similar business or gift-giving relationships with individuals doing business or seeking to do business with Central Health.
