Dear Mrs. Hadesty:
STATE ETHICS COMMISSION
308 FINANCE BUILDING
HARRISBURG, PENNSYLVANIA 17120
June 23, 1980
ADVICE OF THE COMMISSION
On June 9, 1980, Mr. William J. Saltzer, Acting Deputy
Secretary for Adminstration of the Department of Health
forwarded your letter requesting an opinion.
You asked whether there was a conflict of interest in
your serving as a public health nurse at the Lansford
State Health Center of the Department of Health and also
as the Health Officer for the Borough of Tamaqua.
Advice #80 -680
By telephone on June 20, 1980, you told me that
Tamaqua was not part of your official territory as a public
health nurse. You also informed me that there would be
no adverse relationships between your activities as a
health officer in Tamaqua and the Department of Health.
There would be no conflict of interest under Act 170
in your serving in both positions.
Pursuant to Section 7(9)(ii), this advice is a complete
defense in any enforcement proceeding initiated by the Commission,
and evidence of good faith conduct in any other civil or criminal
proceeding, providing the requestor has disclosed truthfully all
the material facts and committed the acts complained of in reliance
on the Advice given.
You may appeal this advice to the full Commission.
This letter is a public record and will be made available
as such.
