A-3.6. Violations of the Conflict of Interest Policy

  1. HHSC will inform the Board member if it has reasonable cause to believe the member failed to disclose potential or actual conflicts of interest, the basis for such belief, and allow the Board member to explain the alleged failure to disclose the information. If, after hearing the board member's response and making such further investigation as warranted, HHSC determines the Board member has failed to disclose a potential or actual conflict of interest, then HHSC will take appropriate corrective actions, which may include removal from the Board.
  2. Any Board member who violates the conflict of interest policy, refuses to sign any documents as a requirement for serving on the Board, or refuses to attend the ethics and conflict of interest training may be subject to removal from the Board.
