Advisory Opinion 1996-003
South Carolina State Ethics Commission
South Carolina State Ethics Commission
Abstract
A council member who is a local home builder should disqualify himself from the debate on matters in which he or a business with which he is associated has an economic interest greater than that of the affected profession or occupation. Once the procedures for disqualification are implemented, the Ethics Act provides no mechanism to "re-enter the debate". However, as the facts change so too does the application of the disqualification procedures. Thus, there is no impediment under the Act to "re-enter the debate".
