The Municipal Conflict of Interest Act sets out what may be regarded as a primary set of ethical rules for council and local board members. These rules apply, with some exceptions, to council and local board members if they have a pecuniary (financial) interest in a matter that is before a council or a local board at a meeting.
A new section 5.1 of the Municipal Conflict of Interest Act requires a member to file a written statement (Declaration of Pecuniary Interest Form) when disclosing a pecuniary interest under Section 5 of the Act.
In addition, the Act under new section 6.1, requires municipalities and local boards to establish and maintain registries that keep copies of statements filed under section 5.1 and of declarations recorded under section 6.
