What you will learn

It is fundamental that the community trust those who are responsible for public administration. This trust relies on public officers carrying out their roles impartially, transparently and wholly in the public interest.

Conflicts of interest can pose a significant risk to honest, open, independent and impartial public administration.

As a public officer it is possible that at some point you will be faced with a conflict of interest. It is important that you are able to identify and disclose any conflicts of interest that arise for you.
