Bill > HB20

This bill amends Alaska's laws on conflict of interest for members of the Board of Fisheries and the Board of Game. The key provisions are: (1) it allows these board members to deliberate and participate in matters relating to a business or organization in which they or their immediate family have a personal or financial interest, as long as they disclose the interest; (2) it states that these board members can only be prohibited from voting on such matters if their further involvement would result in a violation of the state's conflict of interest laws. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
