   6. Shift  pay  differentials.  Whenever  the director finds that under
 prevailing wage practices in private or other public employment  in  the
 state,  employees in a given occupation receive a higher rate  of pay or
 wage differential for a work shift other [than a normal day shift]  than
 that which is paid to employees in the same occupation [for a normal day
 shift],  [he]  THE DIRECTOR may, subject to the approval of the director
 of the budget, authorize a pay differential to be paid to those  employ-
 ees in positions in the same or related occupations in the state service

 practices  would warrant a shift differential for employees in a partic-
 ular occupation then the director may grant a work shift  pay  differen-
 tial  for such employees, subject to the approval of the director of the
 budget. In determining whether  to  authorize  a  pay  differential  the
 director  shall  consider  the various duties on each shift, [other than
 the normal day shift,] in relation  to  the  normal  day  shift.  A  pay
 differential under this subdivision shall be a percentage of basic sala-
 ry,  AN  HOURLY  RATE,  AN ANNUAL RATE, or a fixed dollar amount per pay
 period, as prescribed in each case by the director of the classification
 and compensation division subject to approval of  the  director  of  the
 budget.  Such differential shall be paid in addition to and shall not be
 part of an employee's basic annual  salary,  and  shall  not  affect  or
 impair any performance advancement payments, performance awards, longev-
 ity  payments  or  other  rights or benefits to which an employee may be
 entitled under the provisions of this chapter, provided,  however,  that
 any  differential payable pursuant to this subdivision shall be included
 as compensation for retirement purposes. A  pay  differential  shall  be
 terminated for any employee when [he] THE EMPLOYEE ceases to be employed
 in  the  work  shift  or  position  for  which such pay differential was
 authorized. A pay differential shall remain in effect  until  terminated
 by the director of the classification and compensation division with the
 consent of the director of the budget or until a new pay differential is
 authorized  pursuant to this subdivision. The director of the budget may
 adopt such regulations as [he may  deem]  necessary  to  carry  out  the
 provisions of this subdivision.

   (c) Subject to the provisions of chapter fifty-nine of the laws of two
 thousand, the dormitory authority shall not issue any  bonds  for  state
 university  educational  facilities  purposes if the principal amount of
 bonds to be issued when added to the aggregate principal amount of bonds
 issued  by  the  dormitory  authority  on and after July first, nineteen
 hundred eighty-eight for state university  educational  facilities  will
 exceed  [fifteen  billion  five hundred fifty-five million eight hundred
 sixty-four  thousand  dollars  $15,555,864,000]  SIXTEEN  BILLION  THREE
 HUNDRED  SEVENTY-ONE  MILLION  EIGHT HUNDRED SIXTY-FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS

 shall be excluded from such limitation if:  (1) such bonds are issued to
 refund   state   university  construction  bonds  and  state  university
 construction notes previously issued by the housing finance  agency;  or
 (2)  such  bonds  are  issued  to refund bonds of the authority or other
 obligations issued for state university educational facilities  purposes
 and  the  present  value  of the aggregate debt service on the refunding
 bonds does not exceed the present value of the aggregate debt service on
 the bonds refunded thereby; provided, further that upon certification by
 the director of the budget that the issuance of refunding bonds or other
 obligations issued between April first, nineteen hundred ninety-two  and

 term economic benefits to the state, as  assessed  on  a  present  value
 basis,  such  issuance will be deemed to have met the present value test
 noted above. For purposes of this subdivision, the present value of  the
 aggregate  debt  service  of  the refunding bonds and the aggregate debt
 service of the bonds refunded, shall be calculated by utilizing the true
 interest cost of the refunding bonds, which shall be that  rate  arrived
 at  by doubling the semi-annual interest rate (compounded semi-annually)
 necessary to discount the debt service payments on the  refunding  bonds
 from  the  payment  dates  thereof to the date of issue of the refunding
 bonds to the purchase price of the refunding bonds,  including  interest
 accrued  thereon  prior  to  the  issuance thereof. The maturity of such
 bonds, other than bonds issued to refund outstanding  bonds,  shall  not
 exceed  the  weighted  average  economic life, as certified by the state
 university construction fund, of the facilities in connection with which
 the bonds are issued, and in any case not  later  than  the  earlier  of
 thirty  years  or  the  expiration of the term of any lease, sublease or
 other agreement relating  thereto;  provided  that  no  note,  including
 renewals  thereof,  shall mature later than five years after the date of

 to  be  issued  when  added  to the principal amount of bonds previously
 issued pursuant to any such resolution, except bonds issued to refund or
 to be substituted for or in lieu of other  bonds  in  relation  to  city
 university  facilities,  will exceed [nine billion six hundred sixty-one
 million thirty thousand dollars $9,661,030,000] TEN BILLION NINETY-EIGHT

 For the purposes hereof, the present value of the aggregate debt service

 health services  facilities  improvement  notes  to  refund  outstanding
 mental hygiene improvement bonds authorized to be issued pursuant to the
 provisions  of  section  47-b of the private housing finance law and the

 MAJORITY VOTE, A SUBSTANTIAL BASIS TO CONCLUDE  THAT  A  MEMBER  OF  THE
 LEGISLATURE  OR  A  LEGISLATIVE  EMPLOYEE OR CANDIDATE FOR MEMBER OF THE
 LEGISLATURE HAS VIOLATED ANY PROVISIONS OF SUCH LAWS, IT SHALL PREPARE A
 WRITTEN REPORT OF ITS FINDINGS AND PROVIDE A COPY OF THAT REPORT TO  THE

 SUCH LAW.   THE COMMISSION  SHALL  PROVIDE  TO  THE  LEGISLATIVE  ETHICS
 COMMISSION COPIES OF THE FULL INVESTIGATIVE FILE AND HEARING RECORD.
   (II)  WITH RESPECT TO THE INVESTIGATION OF ANY INDIVIDUAL WHO IS NOT A
 MEMBER OF THE LEGISLATURE OR A LEGISLATIVE  EMPLOYEE  OR  CANDIDATE  FOR
 MEMBER  OF  THE  LEGISLATURE, IF AFTER ITS INVESTIGATION AND DUE PROCESS
 HEARING, THE COMMISSION HAS FOUND A SUBSTANTIAL BASIS TO  CONCLUDE  THAT

 undue hardship no further extension of time will be granted;
   f. Promulgate guidelines to assist appointing authorities in determin-
 ing which persons hold policy-making positions for purposes  of  section
 seventy-three-a of the public officers law and may promulgate guidelines
 to  assist  firms,  associations and corporations in separating affected
 persons from net revenues for purposes of  subdivision  ten  of  section
 seventy-three  of  the public officers law, and promulgate guidelines to
 assist any firm, association or corporation  in  which  any  present  or
 former  statewide elected official, state officer or employee, member of
 the legislature or legislative employee, or political party chairman  is

 three  of the public officers law with respect to the separation of such
 present or former statewide elected official, state officer or employee,

 chairman  from the net revenues of the firm, association or corporation.

 S. 8005--A                         72                         A. 9005--A

 [joint] INDEPENDENT  commission  on  [public]  ethics  AND  LOBBYING  IN
 GOVERNMENT;
   h.  Review  financial  disclosure  statements  in  accordance with the

 the  executive  director  who  shall be responsible for completing staff
 review of such statements in a manner consistent with the terms  of  the
 commission's delegation;
   i.  Upon  written request from any person who is subject to the juris-
 diction of the commission and  the  requirements  of  sections  seventy-
 three,  seventy-three-a  and  seventy-four  of  the public officers law,
 render formal advisory opinions on the requirements of said  provisions.
 A  formal  written  opinion rendered by the commission, until and unless
 amended or revoked, shall be binding on the legislative  ethics  commis-
 sion  in  any  subsequent proceeding concerning the person who requested
 the opinion and who acted in good  faith,  unless  material  facts  were
 omitted  or misstated by the person in the request for an opinion.  Such
 opinion may also be relied upon by such person, and  may  be  introduced
 and  shall  be  a  defense  in any criminal or civil action. The [joint]
 INDEPENDENT commission on [public] ethics  AND  LOBBYING  IN  GOVERNMENT
 shall  not  investigate  an  individual  for potential violations of law
 based upon conduct approved and covered in its entirety by such an opin-
 ion, except that such opinion shall not prevent or preclude an  investi-
 gation of and report to the legislative ethics commission concerning the
 conduct of the person who obtained it by the [joint] INDEPENDENT commis-
 sion  on  [public]  ethics  AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT for violations of
 section seventy-three, seventy-three-a or  seventy-four  of  the  public
 officers  law  to  determine  whether  the  person  accurately and fully
 represented to the legislative ethics commission the facts  relevant  to
 the  formal  advisory opinion and whether the person's conduct conformed
 to those factual representations. The [joint] INDEPENDENT commission  ON
 ETHICS  AND  LOBBYING  IN  GOVERNMENT shall be authorized and shall have
 jurisdiction to investigate potential violations of the law arising from
 conduct outside of the scope of the terms of the advisory opinion; and
   j. Issue and publish  generic  advisory  opinions  covering  questions
 frequently  posed  to  the commission, or questions common to a class or
 defined category of persons, or that will tend to  prevent  undue  repe-
 tition  of  requests  or  undue  complication, and which are intended to
 provide general guidance and  information  to  persons  subject  to  the
 commission's jurisdiction;
   k.  Develop educational materials and training with regard to legisla-
 tive ethics for members of the  legislature  and  legislative  employees
 including  an online ethics orientation course for newly-hired employees
 and, as requested by the senate or the assembly, materials and  training
 in relation to a comprehensive ethics training program; and
   l.  Prepare an annual report to the governor and legislature summariz-
 ing the activities of the commission during the previous year and recom-
 mending any changes in the laws governing the conduct of persons subject
 to the jurisdiction of the commission, or  the  rules,  regulations  and

 procedures   governing  the  commission's  conduct.  Such  report  shall
 include: (i) a listing by assigned number of each complaint  and  report
 received  from the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission on [public] ethics AND
 LOBBYING  IN  GOVERNMENT  which  alleged a possible violation within its
 jurisdiction, including the current status of each complaint,  and  (ii)
 where a matter has been resolved, the date and nature of the disposition
 and any sanction imposed, subject to the confidentiality requirements of
 this  section.  Such annual report shall not contain any information for
 which disclosure is not permitted pursuant to subdivision twelve of this
 section.
   9. (a) An individual subject to the  jurisdiction  of  the  commission
 with  respect  to  the  imposition of penalties who knowingly and inten-
 tionally violates the provisions of  subdivisions  two  through  five-a,
 seven,  eight,  twelve,  fourteen or fifteen of section seventy-three of
 the public officers law or a  reporting  individual  who  knowingly  and
 wilfully  fails  to  file an annual statement of financial disclosure or
 who knowingly and wilfully with intent to deceive makes a  false  state-
 ment  or  gives  information  which such individual knows to be false on
 such statement of financial disclosure filed pursuant to section  seven-
 ty-three-a of the public officers law shall be subject to a civil penal-
 ty  in  an  amount not to exceed forty thousand dollars and the value of
 any  gift,  compensation  or  benefit  received  as  a  result  of  such
 violation.  Any such individual who knowingly and intentionally violates
 the provisions of paragraph a, b, c, d, e, g, or i of subdivision  three
 of section seventy-four of the public officers law shall be subject to a
 civil  penalty  in  an amount not to exceed ten thousand dollars and the
 value of any gift, compensation or benefit received as a result of  such
 violation.  Assessment of a civil penalty hereunder shall be made by the
 commission with respect to  persons  subject  to  its  jurisdiction.  In
 assessing  the  amount of the civil penalties to be imposed, the commis-
 sion shall consider the seriousness of the violation, the amount of gain
 to the individual and whether the individual previously had any civil or
 criminal penalties imposed pursuant  to  this  section,  and  any  other
 factors  the  commission  deems  appropriate.  For  a  violation of this
 section, other than for conduct which constitutes a violation of  subdi-
 vision  twelve,  fourteen or fifteen of section seventy-three or section
 seventy-four of the public officers law, the legislative ethics  commis-
 sion  may,  in  lieu  of  or  in  addition  to  a civil penalty, refer a
 violation to the appropriate prosecutor and upon  such  conviction,  but
 only  after such referral, such violation shall be punishable as a class
 A misdemeanor. Where the commission finds  sufficient  cause,  it  shall
 refer  such  matter  to  the appropriate prosecutor. A civil penalty for
 false filing may not be imposed hereunder in the  event  a  category  of
 "value" or "amount" reported hereunder is incorrect unless such reported
 information  is falsely understated. Notwithstanding any other provision
 of law to the contrary, no other  penalty,  civil  or  criminal  may  be
 imposed for a failure to file, or for a false filing, of such statement,
 or a violation of subdivision six of section seventy-three of the public
 officers  law, except that the appointing authority may impose discipli-
 nary action as otherwise provided by law. The legislative ethics commis-
 sion shall be deemed to be an agency within the meaning of article three
 of the state administrative procedure act and shall adopt rules  govern-
 ing  the  conduct of adjudicatory proceedings and appeals taken pursuant
 to a proceeding commenced under article seventy-eight of the civil prac-
 tice law and rules relating to the assessment  of  the  civil  penalties
 herein authorized. Such rules, which shall not be subject to the promul-
 S. 8005--A                         74                         A. 9005--A

 gation  and  hearing  requirements of the state administrative procedure
 act, shall provide for due process procedural  mechanisms  substantially
 similar  to  those  set  forth in such article three but such mechanisms
 need  not  be identical in terms or scope. Assessment of a civil penalty
 shall be final unless modified, suspended or vacated within thirty  days
 of imposition, with respect to the assessment of such penalty, or unless
 such  denial  of  request  is reversed within such time period, and upon
 becoming final shall be  subject  to  review  at  the  instance  of  the
 affected  reporting  individuals  in  a proceeding commenced against the
 legislative ethics commission, pursuant to article seventy-eight of  the
 civil practice law and rules.
   (b)  Not  later  than  forty-five calendar days after receipt from the
 [joint] INDEPENDENT  commission  on  [public]  ethics  AND  LOBBYING  IN
 GOVERNMENT  of  a written substantial basis investigation report and any
 supporting documentation or other materials regarding  a  matter  before
 the  commission  pursuant to [subdivision fourteen-a of] section ninety-
 four of the executive law, unless requested by a law enforcement  agency
 to suspend the commission's action because of an ongoing criminal inves-
 tigation,  the  legislative  ethics  commission  shall  make public such
 report in its entirety; provided, however, that the commission may with-
 hold such information for not more than one  additional  period  of  the
 same  duration  or  refer  the  matter  back  to the [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission on [public] ethics AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT once for  addi-
 tional  investigation,  in  which case the legislative ethics commission
 shall, upon the termination of such additional period or upon receipt of
 a new report by the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission  on  [public]  ethics
 AND  LOBBYING  IN  GOVERNMENT  after such additional investigation, make
 public the written report and publish it on the commission's website. If
 the legislative ethics commission  fails  to  make  public  the  written
 report  received  from  the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission ON ETHICS AND
 LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT in accordance with this  paragraph,  the  [joint]
 INDEPENDENT  commission  ON  ETHICS  AND  LOBBYING  IN  GOVERNMENT shall
 release such report publicly promptly and in any event no later than ten
 days after the legislative ethics commission is required to release such
 report. The legislative ethics commission shall  not  refer  the  matter
 back to the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission on [public] ethics AND LOBBY-
 ING  IN  GOVERNMENT for additional investigation more than once.  If the
 commission refers the matter back to the [joint] INDEPENDENT  commission
 ON  ETHICS  AND  LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT for additional fact-finding, the
 [joint commission's] INDEPENDENT COMMISSION ON ETHICS  AND  LOBBYING  IN
 GOVERNMENT'S original report shall remain confidential.
   10.  Upon  receipt  of  a  written report from the [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission on [public] ethics AND LOBBYING  IN  GOVERNMENT  pursuant  to
 subdivision  fourteen-a  of section seventy-three of the public officers
 law, the legislative ethics commission shall commence its review of  the
 matter addressed in such report. No later than ninety days after receipt
 of  such  report, the legislative ethics commission shall dispose of the
 matter by making one or more of the following determinations:
   a. whether the legislative ethics commission concurs with  the  [joint
 commission's]  INDEPENDENT  COMMISSION ON ETHICS AND LOBBYING IN GOVERN-
 MENT'S conclusions of law and the reasons therefor;
   b. whether and which penalties have been assessed pursuant to applica-
 ble law or rule and the reasons therefor; and
   c. whether further actions have been taken by the commission to punish
 or deter the misconduct at issue and the reasons therefor.

   The  commission's  disposition  shall  be  reported  in  writing   and
 published  on  its website no later than ten days after such disposition

 officers law, the only records of the commission which shall  be  avail-
 able for public inspection and copying are:

 ral  or  report  which  includes a fine, penalty or other remedy reached

 ethics  AND  LOBBYING  IN  GOVERNMENT, and which shall contain any other
 records or information which the commission determines to  be  appropri-
 ate.

 individual personally provided services, or who was referred to the firm
 by  the  reporting individual, and from whom the reporting individual or
 his or her firm earned fees in excess of $10,000  during  the  reporting

 estate planning, or domestic relations matters, nor shall the  reporting
 individual  identify  individuals  represented  pursuant to an insurance
 policy but the reporting individual shall  in  such  circumstances  only
 report  the  entity that provides compensation to the reporting individ-
 ual; with respect to matters in which the client's name is  required  by
 law  to  be  kept  confidential  (such as matters governed by the family
 court act) or in matters in which the reporting individual represents or
 provides services to minors, the client's  name  may  be  replaced  with
 initials.  To  the  extent  that the reporting individual, or his or her
 firm, provided legal representation with respect to  an  initial  public
 offering,  and  professional  disciplinary  rules,  federal law or regu-
 lations restrict the disclosure of information relating  to  such  work,
 the  reporting  individual shall (i) disclose the identity of the client
 and the services provided relating to the initial public offering to the
 office of court  administration,  who  will  maintain  such  information
 confidentially  in a locked box; and (ii) include in his or her response
 to questions (b-1) and (b-2) that pursuant to this paragraph, a  disclo-
 sure to the office of court administration has been made. Upon such time
 that  the  disclosure  of information maintained in the locked box is no
 longer restricted by professional disciplinary  rules,  federal  law  or
 regulation,  the reporting individual shall disclose such information in
 an amended disclosure statement in response to the  disclosure  require-
 ments  in  questions (b-1) and (b-2). The office of court administration
 shall develop and maintain a secure  portal  through  which  information
 submitted  to  it pursuant to this paragraph can be safely and confiden-

 tially stored. With respect to clients represented in other matters  not
 otherwise  exempt,  the reporting individual may request an exemption to
 publicly disclosing the name of that client from the [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission  ON  ETHICS AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT pursuant to [paragraph
 (i-1) of subdivision nine of] section ninety-four of the executive  law,
 or  from  the  office  of court administration. In such application, the
 reporting individual shall  state  the  following:  "My  client  is  not
 currently  receiving  my  services  or seeking my services in connection
 with:
   (i) A proposed bill or resolution in the senate or assembly during the
 reporting period;
   (ii) A contract in an amount totaling $10,000 or more from  the  state
 or any state agency for services, materials, or property;
   (iii)  A  grant  of $10,000 or more from the state or any state agency
 during the reporting period;
   (iv) A grant obtained through  a  legislative  initiative  during  the
 reporting period; or
   (v)  A  case,  proceeding,  application  or other matter that is not a
 ministerial matter before a state agency during the reporting period."
   In reviewing the request for an  exemption,  the  [joint]  INDEPENDENT
 commission  ON  ETHICS AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT or the office of court
 administration may consult with bar or other  professional  associations
 and  the  legislative  ethics  commission for individuals subject to its
 jurisdiction and may consider the  rules  of  professional  conduct.  In
 making  its  determination, the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission ON ETHICS
 AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT or the office of court  administration  shall
 conduct  its  own  inquiry and shall consider factors including, but not
 limited to: (i) the nature and the size of the client; (ii) whether  the
 client has any business before the state; and if so, how significant the
 business  is;  and whether the client has any particularized interest in
 pending legislation and if so how significant  the  interest  is;  (iii)
 whether  disclosure  may  reveal  trade secrets; (iv) whether disclosure
 could reasonably result in retaliation against the client;  (v)  whether
 disclosure  may  cause undue harm to the client; (vi) whether disclosure
 may result in undue harm to the attorney-client relationship; and  (vii)
 whether  disclosure  may result in an unnecessary invasion of privacy to
 the client.
   The [joint] INDEPENDENT commission ON ETHICS AND LOBBYING  IN  GOVERN-
 MENT  or,  as  the case may be, the office of court administration shall
 promptly make a final determination in response to such  request,  which
 shall include an explanation for its determination.  The office of court
 administration  shall issue its final determination within three days of
 receiving the request. Notwithstanding any other provision of law or any
 professional disciplinary rule to the contrary, the  disclosure  of  the
 identity  of  any  client or customer in response to this question shall
 not constitute professional misconduct  or  a  ground  for  disciplinary
 action of any kind, or form the basis for any civil or criminal cause of
 action  or  proceeding.  A  reporting individual who first enters public
 office after January  first,  two  thousand  sixteen,  need  not  report
 clients  or  customers  with  respect to matters for which the reporting
 individual or his or her firm was  retained  prior  to  entering  public
 office.

 SAND FIFTEEN:
   If the reporting individual receives income of ten thousand dollars or
 greater  from any employment or activity reportable under question 8(a),
 identify each registered lobbyist who  has  directly  referred  to  such
 individual a client who was successfully referred to the reporting indi-
 vidual's  business  and  from  whom  the  reporting  individual  or firm
 received a fee for services in excess of five thousand  dollars.  Report
 only  those referrals that were made to a reporting individual by direct
 communication from a person known to such reporting individual to  be  a
 registered  lobbyist  at  the time the referral is made. With respect to
 each such referral, the reporting individual shall identify the  client,
 the registered lobbyist who has made the referral, the category of value
 of  the  compensation  received and a general description of the type of
 matter so referred. A reporting individual need not disclose  activities
 performed while lawfully acting pursuant to paragraphs (c), (d), (e) and
 (f)  of  subdivision seven of section seventy-three of this article. The
 disclosure requirements in this question shall  not  require  disclosing
 clients   or  customers  receiving  medical,  pharmaceutical  or  dental
 services, mental health services, or residential real  estate  brokering
 services  from the reporting individual or his or her firm or if federal
 law prohibits or limits disclosure. The reporting  individual  need  not
 identify  any client to whom he or she or his or her firm provided legal
 representation with respect  to  investigation  or  prosecution  by  law
 enforcement  authorities,  bankruptcy, family court, estate planning, or
 domestic relations matters, nor shall the reporting individual  identify
 individuals  represented pursuant to an insurance policy but the report-
 ing individual shall in such circumstances only report the  entity  that
 provides  compensation  to  the  reporting  individual;  with respect to
 matters in which the client's name is required by law to be kept  confi-
 dential (such as matters governed by the family court act) or in matters
 in  which  the  reporting  individual represents or provides services to
 minors, the client's name may be replaced with initials. To  the  extent
 that the reporting individual, or his or her firm, provided legal repre-
 sentation with respect to an initial public offering, and federal law or
 regulations  restricts  the  disclosure  of information relating to such
 work, the reporting individual shall (i) disclose the  identity  of  the
 client and the services provided relating to the initial public offering
 to  the  office of court administration, who will maintain such informa-
 tion confidentially in a locked box; and (ii)  include  in  his  or  her
 response  a  statement  that pursuant to this paragraph, a disclosure to
 the office of court administration has been made. Upon  such  time  that
 the  disclosure of information maintained in the locked box is no longer
 restricted by federal law or regulation, the reporting individual  shall
 disclose such information in an amended disclosure statement in response
 to  the  disclosure requirements of this paragraph.  The office of court
 administration shall develop and maintain a secure portal through  which
 information submitted to it pursuant to this paragraph can be safely and
 confidentially  stored.  With  respect  to  clients represented in other
 matters not otherwise exempt, the reporting individual  may  request  an
 exemption  to  publicly  disclosing  the  name  of  that client from the
 [joint] INDEPENDENT commission ON  ETHICS  AND  LOBBYING  IN  GOVERNMENT
 pursuant to [paragraph (i-1) of subdivision nine of] section ninety-four
 of  the  executive  law,  or from the office of court administration. In
 such application, the reporting individual shall  state  the  following:

 "My client is not currently receiving my services or seeking my services
 in connection with:
   (i) A proposed bill or resolution in the senate or assembly during the
 reporting period;
   (ii)  A  contract in an amount totaling $10,000 or more from the state
 or any state agency for services, materials, or property;
   (iii) A grant of $10,000 or more from the state or  any  state  agency
 during the reporting period;
   (iv)  A  grant  obtained  through  a legislative initiative during the
 reporting period; or
   (v) A case, proceeding, application or other  matter  that  is  not  a
 ministerial matter before a state agency during the reporting period."
   In  reviewing  the  request  for an exemption, the [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission ON ETHICS AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT or the office  of  court
 administration  may  consult with bar or other professional associations
 and the legislative ethics commission for  individuals  subject  to  its
 jurisdiction  and  may  consider  the  rules of professional conduct. In
 making its determination, the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission  ON  ETHICS
 AND  LOBBYING  IN GOVERNMENT or the office of court administration shall
 conduct its own inquiry and shall consider factors  including,  but  not
 limited  to: (i) the nature and the size of the client; (ii) whether the
 client has any business before the state; and if so, how significant the
 business is; and whether the client has any particularized  interest  in
 pending  legislation  and  if  so how significant the interest is; (iii)
 whether disclosure may reveal trade  secrets;  (iv)  whether  disclosure
 could  reasonably  result in retaliation against the client; (v) whether
 disclosure may cause undue harm to the client; (vi)  whether  disclosure
 may  result in undue harm to the attorney-client relationship; and (vii)
 whether disclosure may result in an unnecessary invasion of  privacy  to
 the client.
   The  [joint]  INDEPENDENT commission ON ETHICS AND LOBBYING IN GOVERN-
 MENT or, as the case may be, the office of  court  administration  shall
 promptly  make  a final determination in response to such request, which
 shall include an explanation for its determination.  The office of court
 administration shall issue its final determination within three days  of
 receiving the request. Notwithstanding any other provision of law or any
 professional  disciplinary  rule  to the contrary, the disclosure of the
 identity of any client or customer in response to  this  question  shall
 not  constitute  professional  misconduct  or  a ground for disciplinary
 action of any kind, or form the basis for any civil or criminal cause of
 action or proceeding. A reporting individual  who  first  enters  public
 office  after  December  thirty-first,  two  thousand  fifteen, need not
 report clients or customers  with  respect  to  matters  for  which  the
 reporting  individual  or his or her firm was retained prior to entering
 public office.

 laws of 2011 and subdivision 7 as added by section 3 of part CC of chap-
 ter 56 of the laws of 2015, are amended to read as follows:
   4.  A reporting individual who knowingly and wilfully fails to file an
 annual statement of financial disclosure or who knowingly  and  wilfully
 with  intent  to  deceive  makes  a false statement or gives information
 which such individual knows to be false on such statement  of  financial
 disclosure  filed  pursuant  to this section shall be subject to a civil
 penalty in an amount not to exceed forty thousand dollars. Assessment of
 a civil penalty hereunder shall  be  made  by  the  [joint]  INDEPENDENT
 commission  on  [public]  ethics  AND  LOBBYING  IN GOVERNMENT or by the
 legislative ethics commission, as the  case  may  be,  with  respect  to
 persons  subject  to  their respective jurisdictions.  The [joint] INDE-
 PENDENT commission on [public] ethics AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT  acting
 pursuant to subdivision fourteen of section ninety-four of the executive
 law  or the legislative ethics commission acting pursuant to subdivision
 eleven of section eighty of the legislative law, as  the  case  may  be,
 may,  in lieu of or in addition to a civil penalty, refer a violation to
 the appropriate prosecutor and upon such conviction, but only after such
 referral, such violation shall be punishable as a class A misdemeanor. A
 civil penalty for false filing may not be imposed hereunder in the event
 a category of "value" or "amount" reported hereunder is incorrect unless
 such reported information is falsely  understated.  Notwithstanding  any
 other provision of law to the contrary, no other penalty, civil or crim-
 inal  may  be  imposed  for a failure to file, or for a false filing, of
 such statement, except that the appointing authority may  impose  disci-
 plinary  action  as  otherwise  provided by law. The [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission on [public] ethics AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT and the  legis-
 lative ethics commission shall each be deemed to be an agency within the
 meaning  of  article three of the state administrative procedure act and
 shall adopt rules governing the conduct of adjudicatory proceedings  and
 appeals relating to the assessment of the civil penalties herein author-
 ized.  Such  rules,  which shall not be subject to the approval require-
 ments of the state administrative procedure act, shall provide  for  due
 process  procedural  mechanisms substantially similar to those set forth
 in such article three but such mechanisms need not be identical in terms
 or scope. Assessment of a civil penalty shall be final unless  modified,
 suspended  or vacated within thirty days of imposition and upon becoming
 final shall be subject to review at the instance of the affected report-
 ing individual in a proceeding commenced against the [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission on [public] ethics AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT or the legisla-
 tive ethics commission, pursuant to article seventy-eight of  the  civil
 practice law and rules.
   7.  With  respect  to an application to either the [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission ON ETHICS AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT or the office  of  court
 administration  for  an  exemption to disclosing the name of a client or
 customer in response to questions 8 (b-1), 8 (b-2) and 8 (c), all infor-
 mation which is the subject of or  a  part  of  such  application  shall
 remain confidential. The name of the client need not be disclosed by the
 reporting individual unless and until the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission
 ON  ETHICS  AND  LOBBYING  IN GOVERNMENT or the office of court adminis-
 tration formally advises the reporting individual that he  or  she  must
 disclose such names and the reporting individual agrees to represent the
 client.  Any  commissioner or person employed by the [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission ON ETHICS AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT or any  person  employed
 by  the  office  of  court administration who, intentionally and without
 authorization from a court of competent jurisdiction releases  confiden-

 agency  head  certifies in writing to the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission
 on [public] ethics AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT that the services of  such
 former  officer or employee are required in connection with the agency's
 response to a disaster emergency declared by the  governor  pursuant  to
 section twenty-eight of the executive law.
   §  15.  Subdivisions 8-a, 8-b and 10 of section 73 of the public offi-

 laws  of  2011,  and subdivision 10 as amended by section 5 of part K of
 chapter 286 of the laws of 2016, are amended to read as follows:
   8-a. The provisions of subparagraphs (i) and (ii) of paragraph (a)  of
 subdivision  eight  of  this  section shall not apply to any such former
 state officer or employee engaged  in  any  of  the  specific  permitted
 activities  defined  in  this  subdivision that are related to any civil
 action or proceeding in any state or federal court,  provided  that  the
 attorney  general  has  certified  in writing to the [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission on [public] ethics AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT, with a copy to
 such former state officer or employee, that the services are rendered on
 behalf of the state, a state agency, state officer or employee, or other
 person or entity represented by the  attorney  general,  and  that  such
 former  state officer or employee has expertise, knowledge or experience
 which is unique or outstanding in a field or in a particular  matter  or
 which  would  otherwise be generally unavailable at a comparable cost to
 the state, a state agency, state officer or employee, or other person or
 entity represented by the attorney  general  in  such  civil  action  or
 proceeding.  In  those instances where a state agency is not represented
 by the attorney general in a civil action  or  proceeding  in  state  or
 federal  court, a former state officer or employee may engage in permit-
 ted activities provided that the general counsel of  the  state  agency,
 after  consultation  with the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission on [public]
 ethics AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT, provides to the  [joint]  INDEPENDENT
 commission  on  [public]  ethics  AND  LOBBYING  IN GOVERNMENT a written
 certification which meets the  requirements  of  this  subdivision.  For
 purposes  of this subdivision the term "permitted activities" shall mean
 generally any activity performed at the request of the attorney  general
 or  the  attorney general's designee, or in cases where the state agency

 tary or oral information concerning facts or opinions, attending deposi-
 tions or participating in document review or discovery;
   (c) performing investigations, examinations, inspections or  tests  of
 persons, documents or things;
   (d)  performing  audits,  appraisals, compilations or computations, or
 reporting about them;
   (e) identifying information to be sought concerning facts or opinions;

   (f) otherwise assisting in the preparation for, or  conduct  of,  such
 litigation.
   Nothing  in  this  subdivision  shall  apply to the provision of legal
 representation by any former state officer or employee.
   8-b. Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraphs (i) and  (ii)  of
 paragraph (a) of subdivision eight of this section, a former state offi-
 cer or employee may contract individually, or as a member or employee of
 a  firm,  corporation  or  association,  to render services to any state
 agency if, prior to engaging in such service, the agency head  certifies
 in  writing to the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission on [public] ethics AND
 LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT that such former officer or employee  has  exper-
 tise,  knowledge or experience with respect to a particular matter which
 meets the needs of the agency and is otherwise unavailable at a compara-
 ble cost. Where approval of the contract is required under  section  one
 hundred  twelve  of  the state finance law, the comptroller shall review
 and consider the reasons for such certification. The [joint] INDEPENDENT
 commission on [public] ethics AND LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT must review and
 approve all certifications made pursuant to this subdivision.
   10. Nothing contained in this section, the judiciary law,  the  educa-
 tion  law  or  any  other law or disciplinary rule shall be construed or
 applied to prohibit any firm, association or corporation, in  which  any
 present or former statewide elected official, state officer or employee,
 or  political  party  chairman, member of the legislature or legislative
 employee is a member, associate, retired member, of  counsel  or  share-
 holder, from appearing, practicing, communicating or otherwise rendering
 services  in relation to any matter before, or transacting business with
 a state agency, or a city agency  with  respect  to  a  political  party
 chairman in a county wholly included in a city with a population of more
 than  one  million,  otherwise proscribed by this section, the judiciary
 law, the education law or  any  other  law  or  disciplinary  rule  with
 respect  to  such  official,  member  of  the  legislature or officer or
 employee, or political party  chairman,  where  such  statewide  elected
 official, state officer or employee, member of the legislature or legis-
 lative  employee,  or political party chairman does not share in the net
 revenues, as defined in accordance with  generally  accepted  accounting
 principles  by the [joint] INDEPENDENT commission on [public] ethics AND
 LOBBYING IN GOVERNMENT  or  by  the  legislative  ethics  commission  in
 relation to persons subject to their respective jurisdictions, resulting
 therefrom,  or, acting in good faith, reasonably believed that he or she
 would not share in the net revenues as so defined;  nor  shall  anything
 contained  in  this section, the judiciary law, the education law or any
 other law or disciplinary rule be construed to prohibit any firm,  asso-
 ciation  or corporation in which any present or former statewide elected
 official, member of the  legislature,  legislative  employee,  full-time
 salaried  state  officer or employee or state officer or employee who is
 subject to the provisions of section seventy-three-a of this article  is
 a  member,  associate,  retired  member, of counsel or shareholder, from

 of claims, where such statewide elected official, member of the legisla-
 ture, legislative employee, full-time salaried state officer or employee
 or state officer or employee who is subject to the provisions of section
 seventy-three-a of this article does not share in the net  revenues,  as
 defined  in  accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by

 A. 9005--B                          7
 
 wage differential for a work shift other [than a normal day shift]  than
 that which is paid to employees in the same occupation [for a normal day
 shift],  [he]  THE DIRECTOR may, subject to the approval of the director
 of  the budget, authorize a pay differential to be paid to those employ-
 ees in positions in the same or related occupations in the state service
 and who are [regularly]  assigned  to  an  equivalent  or  substantially
 equivalent work shift, on a statewide basis, provided however, where the
 director  finds  that  in  a  particular geographical area or areas wage
 practices would warrant a shift differential for employees in a  partic-
 ular  occupation  then the director may grant a work shift pay differen-
 tial for such employees, subject to the approval of the director of  the
 budget.  In  determining  whether  to  authorize  a pay differential the
 director shall consider the various duties on each  shift,  [other  than
 the  normal  day  shift,]  in  relation  to  the normal day shift. A pay
 differential under this subdivision shall be a percentage of basic sala-
 ry, AN HOURLY RATE, AN ANNUAL RATE, or a fixed  dollar  amount  per  pay
 period, as prescribed in each case by the director of the classification
 and  compensation  division  subject  to approval of the director of the
 budget. Such differential shall be paid in addition to and shall not  be
 part  of  an  employee's  basic  annual  salary, and shall not affect or
 impair any performance advancement payments, performance awards, longev-
 ity payments or other rights or benefits to which  an  employee  may  be
 entitled  under  the provisions of this chapter, provided, however, that
 any differential payable pursuant to this subdivision shall be  included
 as  compensation  for  retirement  purposes. A pay differential shall be
 terminated for any employee when [he] THE EMPLOYEE ceases to be employed
 in the work shift or  position  for  which  such  pay  differential  was
 authorized.  A  pay differential shall remain in effect until terminated
 by the director of the classification and compensation division with the
 consent of the director of the budget or until a new pay differential is
 authorized pursuant to this subdivision. The director of the budget  may
 adopt  such  regulations  as  [he  may  deem] necessary to carry out the
 provisions of this subdivision.
