Canada Public Service Agency, Office of Public Service Values and Ethics, 2006. Public servants in the Government of Canada are required to be as concerned with preventing apparent conflicts of interest as they are with preventing real and potential conflicts of interest. This paper was developed to contribute to a better understanding of the meaning and significance of apparent conflict of interest, given its implications for the integrity of government, the public service, and individual public servants. The paper is intended to be of use to public servants and public service managers, but will also be of value to members of the public, especially those who work with the public service, to understand the special duties that public servants are required to uphold. 1, record 2, English, - Apparent%20Conflict%20of%20Interest

Agence de la fonction publique du Canada, Bureau des valeurs et de l'éthique de la fonction publique, 2006. Les fonctionnaires du gouvernement du Canada doivent se préoccuper d'éviter aussi bien les conflits d'intérêts apparents que les conflits d'intérêts réels et potentiels. Le présent document vise à favoriser une meilleure compréhension de la signification et de l'importance du conflit d'intérêts apparent, compte tenu de ses répercussions sur l'intégrité du gouvernement, de la fonction publique et de chacun des fonctionnaires. Il est destiné à constituer un outil utile aux fonctionnaires et aux gestionnaires de la fonction publique, mais il sera également utile pour le public, en particulier les personnes qui travaillent avec la fonction publique, à comprendre les obligations spéciales que les fonctionnaires se doivent de respecter. 1, record 2, French, - Le%20conflit%20d%27int%C3%A9r%C3%AAts%20apparent
