- Out of the 500 officials examined, 30% had incomplete or inaccurate disclosures, while 10% had no disclosures at all.<\/li>\n

The Response<\/h2>\n\n- The Ethics Commission has recommended stricter enforcement and penalties for non-compliance with disclosure requirements.<\/li>\n
- City officials have also been urged to take their disclosure responsibilities more seriously and to recuse themselves when necessary.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
