En situation de conflit d'intérêts, l'influence répréhensible doit être évaluée lorsque les loyautés sont divisées. Un titulaire de charge publique ayant, par définition, un devoir public, on ne peut le mettre en situation de conflit d'intérêts qu'en créant un intérêt personnel concurrentiel. C'est cet intérêt personnel, auquel le titulaire de charge publique accorde ou pourrait accorder sa loyauté, qui constitue l'influence répréhensible évoquée dans la règle. 1, record 1, French, - influence%20r%C3%A9pr%C3%A9hensible
