The board shall determine an appropriate remedy which may include recusal of the conflicted official from participating in certain matters pending before the board or other foundation body. Slesinger management is responsible for collecting the conflict of interest forms on an annual basis and bringing any potential conflicts of interest as identified on the forms to the board's attention immediately.

A covered official whose potential conflict is under review may not debate, vote, or otherwise participate in such determination.

Such remedy may include, for example, the recusal of the conflicted covered official from participating in certain matters pending before the board or other fmeca body.”
