The hierarchical authority shall offer all members of staff, on their appointment and as often as necessary thereafter, an interview devoted to the prevention of situations of conflict of interest.
If the employee is subject to the obligation to make a declaration of interests as provided for in article 25 ter of the aforementioned law of 13 July 1983, the interview provided for in the first paragraph is compulsory and is conducted on the basis of the content of this declaration.
The interview enables the employee to state any past or present interests or activities, in particular of a financial, professional, family or personal nature, which may influence or appear to influence the independent, impartial and objective performance of his/her duties.
In the light of the information provided during the interview, the staff member’s work is organised in such a way as to avoid situations in which doubt might arise as to the staff member’s impartiality or the independent performance of his duties. If this arrangement cannot be made, a change of assignment will be considered.
