CAP Budget Funding Woes?

[desertengineer1]

LT, you are correct; to a point.  If Capt Smith brought the contract to national and, did not disclose he/she would profit by it, we have FWA.  If "National Motors", where Capt Smith worked, made a bid for the contract,  there would not be a problem; unless Capt Smith drew up the contract and a commision was paid to Capt Smith (FWA again).  The contract regulations for CAP are very specific and do need special skill in interpreting.  The only reason I bring this forward is because I do have some experience with the regs and,  the information given me came from involved individuals. 

Until the matter is fully investigated, I don't know what the outcome of this will be.  It is unfortunate however, this is a matter for discussion.

Not really.  You have conflict of interest, not FWA, to which an investigation is usually what happens next.  Most of these are not ill intentioned, but you have to treat them all as such.

I'm confounded by just how many of our members just don't get it with respect to keeping away from this issue.  If you, a relative, or someone close to you stand to make even one penny off of something relating to a contract/service action that you had a role with arranging, you should be very afraid.

I just don't get it because I have this discussion with at least one CAP member every couple of months.  It usually results in the "come outside with me for a sec" followed by a "where is your brain, man?" discussion.

yes, a conflict of interest is a good way to discribe the process however, it would probably be considered a fruad if the failure to disclose was proven. 

I agree 100% to your comments.  I'm also confounded by how many of our "leaders" keep forgetting this "inconvenient" truth.

Great post.  :clap:
