11.01 No official or employee of a member or any members of the family of such officials or employees, or any businesses in which such officials, employees or family members have a beneficial interest, shall seek to obtain or participate in any contract to be entered into by the Fund for administration, loss control, investment or depository services, insurance coverage or any other service, commodity or material without first fully disclosing in writing the nature and extent of such interest, financial or otherwise, to the Joint Insurance Fund commissioners. It shall be the responsibility of the Fund commissioners to determine if the interest so disclosed is such as to constitute an actual or potential conflict of such degree as to impair the ability of the officer, employee, family member or business from fully and impartially performing the duties required by the Fund. If so, the officer, employee, family member or business shall be prohibited from entering into such contract until the cause of such conflict is removed.
11.02 Any contract entered into between the Fund and any individual, firm, corporation or agency which fails to disclose an actual or potential conflict situation shall be void.
11.03 There shall be no collusion or evidence or appearance of collusion, between any official or employee of the member, members or employees of the Fund and any official or employee of any contractor, vendor, insurance company, bank, consultant, brokerage firm or any other profit making or non-profit firm attempting to solicit a contract with the Fund or awarded a contract by the Fund.
