Cole Acting Regional Director Small Business Administration 492 New Custom House Building 721 - 19th Street Denver, Colorado 80202 Dear Mr. Cole: This is to notify you that we have completed our work on the Review of the Small Business Administration's management, organization, and review functions, code 07765. I wish to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the assistance and cooperation extended Messrs. Goetz, Neely, and Buschy of my staff. During our exit conference we discussed items concerning the Standards of Conduct Program and SBA review functions that require attention by Region VIII. SBA standards of conduct: 1. SBA standards of conduct rules and regulations require certain employees to file statements of employment and financial interest within 30 days of becoming incumbents of their position. We found that this regulation is not being enforced in Region VIII. Of the employees hired at a GS-13 or above or promoted to a GS-13 between July 1, 1972, and December 31, 1974, none filed a statement within 30 days. 2. Regulations require GS-13's or above to file statements if they make decisions or take final action regarding the granting of financial assistance. We noted that attorneys in grade GS-13 or above do not file these statements, even though their duties include closing and disbursing loans and serving on Claims Review Committees. 3. The Standards of Conduct Counselor has not been provided with guidelines or resources necessary to perform an adequate review of the statements of employment and financial interest.
