137 During the discussions with Crown entities, the Commissioner will seek their answers to the following type of questions. Only then will the Commissioner be better informed on whether to exercise his mandate to set minimum standards of integrity and conduct for a particular entity and, if so, in what format.
- If your entity already has written standards of integrity and conduct:
- do they cover all the issues discussed in Part 4 of this document?
- if they cover just some of the issues in Part 4, what issues are not yet covered by your entity's standards?
- where your entity's standards do cover the same issues as in Part 4, is there any substantial difference between your existing standards and what is said in Part 4 of this document? If yes, do you disagree with the treatment of the issue in this document?
- are your entity's existing standards written in a code of conduct or different instrument(s) e.g. the entity's personnel policies and/or the employees' employment agreements?
- Are there any circumstances affecting your entity that would justify variations to the preliminary conclusions in Part 4 of this document?
- Were you expecting, or wanting, more detailed guidance on any of the issues in part 4 of this document?
- Were you expecting to see any other issues in the Commissioner's sphere of interest, or do you think the Commissioner should have in interest in other issues?
- Do you have any questions you want to put to the Commissioner?
