Sec.  200.735-114a  Employees not required to submit statements.

    (a) Employees in positions that meet the criteria in paragraphs 
(b)(1) or (c)(1) of Sec.  200.735-114 of this subpart may be exempted 
from the reporting requirement of Sec.  200.735-114 if the Director of 
Personnel, upon obtaining the advice of the General Counsel, determines 
that:
    (1) The duties of a position are such that the likelihood of the 
incumbent's involvement in a conflict-of-interest situation is remote;
    (2) The duties of a position are at such a level of responsibility 
that the submission of a statement of employment and financial interests 
is not necessary because of the degree of supervision and review over 
the incumbent or the inconsequential effect on the integrity of the 
Government.
    (b) All determinations made pursuant to paragraph (a) shall be 
documented in a writing which shall be annexed to the listings required 
by paragraphs (b)(2) and (c)(2) of Sec.  200.735-114 of this subpart. 
The factual bases and reasons for determinations under paragraphs (a)(1) 
and (a)(2) of this section shall be specified by the Director of 
Personnel in said writing. Said writing shall refer to the position only 
and shall not include the name, or other identifying particular, of the 
incumbent occupying the position.
    (c) A statement of employment and financial interests from 
commissioners is not required by this subpart. Such employees are 
subject to separate reporting requirements under section 401 of 
Executive Order 11222 (3 CFR 306 (1964-1965 Comp.)).
