Senate Resolution No. 404
 
BY: Senator FLANAGAN
 
        CONCURRENT  RESOLUTION  OF  THE  SENATE AND ASSEMBLY
        amending the Permanent Joint Rules of the Senate and
        Assembly,  in  relation  to  advisory  opinions   in
        relation to outside employment
 
  RESOLVED  (if  the          concur), That the Permanent Joint Rules of
the Senate and Assembly be amended by adding a new Joint Rule V to  read
as follows:
 
                              JOINT RULE V
 
  Section  1.  Advisory  Opinions  in relation to Outside Employment.  A
member of the legislature who intends to  undertake  or  who  undertakes
outside  employment  shall submit to the Legislative Ethics Commission a
written  request  for  a  formal  advisory  opinion,  pursuant  to   the
provisions  of  paragraph  i  of  subdivision  7  of  section  80 of the
Legislative Law, regarding whether the outside employment is  consistent
with  the  provisions  of sections 73 and 74 of the Public Officers Law.
For  the  purposes  of  this  joint  rule,  "outside  employment"  means
compensation  in  excess  of 5,000 dollars per calendar year, other than
compensation provided pursuant to sections 5 and 5-a of the  Legislative
Law,  from  employment  for services rendered or goods sold as part of a
regular course of any business during a member's term.
  § 2. Timeframe. Members of the legislature shall be required to submit
such written requests as follows:
  a. For members of the legislature who are currently engaged in outside
employment  and  have  not  previously  submitted  a  request   to   the
Legislative   Ethics   Commission  for  a  formal  advisory  opinion  in
connection with such employment, within thirty days of the  adoption  of
this resolution by the Senate and the Assembly;
  b.  For  members of the legislature in relation to prospective outside
employment, prior to the receipt  of  compensation  in  excess  of  five
thousand dollars from such outside employment; and
  c.  For  newly-elected  members  of  the  legislature  in  relation to
maintaining previously-held outside employment, within  thirty  days  of
assuming office.
  §  3.  Impact.  Such  written  advisory  opinions are binding upon the
Legislative Ethics Commission and the Joint Commission on Public  Ethics
in  accordance  with  the  provisions of paragraph i of subdivision 7 of
section 80 of the Legislative Law.
 
  RESOLVED (if the          concur), That the foregoing amendment to the
Permanent  Joint  Rules  of  the  Senate  and  Assembly   be   effective
immediately.
