It is up to them to decide.
As I mentioned in my opening remarks, they are subject to the act, but because they are only public officers and not reporting public officers, it is up to them to inquire or to familiarize themselves with the act and to act in accordance with it. If you're a reporting public officer or a member of Parliament like you, then, as you know, you have to make a declaration and annually update it. There's a person designated to look after you. You can talk to them at any time.
That doesn't apply to public office holders. If you're a public office holder, basically you're subject to the act. We write them a letter: Here is the act. You are now appointed. You are subject to the act. This is a copy of the act. If you have any problem, contact us. It's up to them to decide whether or not they have a conflict and whether or not they want to consult us.
