    In addition to acts and omissions of public officials and employees now


    prescribed in the Constitution and existing laws, the following shall
    constitute prohibited acts and transactions of any public official and
    employees and hereby declared to be unlawful.
    Financial and Material Interest
    Public officials and employees shall not, directly or indirectly, have any
    financial or material interest in any transaction requiring the approval of
    their office.
    Outside employment and other activities
    related thereto
    — Public officials and employees during their incumbency shall not:
    (1) Own, control, manage or accept employment as officer, employee, consultant,
    counsel, broker, agent, trustee or nominee in any private enterprise regulated,
    supervised or licensed by their office unless expressly allowed by law;
    (2) Engage in the private practice of their profession unless authorized by the
    Constitution or law, provided, that such practice will not conflict or tend to
    conflict with their official functions; or
    (3) Recommend any person to any position in a private enterprise which has a
    regular or pending official transaction with their office.
    Outside employment and other activities
    related thereto
    These prohibitions shall continue to apply for a period of one (1) year
    after resignation, retirement, or separation from public office, except in the
    case of subparagraph (b) (2) above, but the professional concerned cannot
    practice his profession in connection with any matter before the office he
    used to be with, in which case the one-year prohibition shall likewise apply.
    Disclosure and/or misuse of confidential
    information
    Public officials and employees shall not use or divulge, confidential or
    classified information officially known to them by reason of their office and
    not made available to the public, either:

    (1) To further their private interests, or give undue advantage to anyone; or


    (2) To prejudice the public interest.
    Solicitation or acceptance of gifts
    Public officials and employees shall not solicit or accept, directly or
    indirectly, any gift, gratuity, favor, entertainment, loan or anything of
    monetary value from any person in the course of their official duties or in
    connection with any operation being regulated by, or any transaction which
    may be affected by the functions of their office.
    Solicitation or acceptance of gifts
    As to gifts or grants from foreign governments, the Congress consents to:
    (i) The acceptance and retention by a public official or employee of a gift
    of nominal value tendered and received as a souvenir or mark of
    courtesy;
    (ii) The acceptance by a public official or employee of a gift in the nature
    of a scholarship or fellowship grant or medical treatment; or
    Solicitation or acceptance of gifts
    (iii) The acceptance by a public official or employee of travel grants or
    expenses for travel taking place entirely outside the Philippine (such as
    allowances, transportation, food, and lodging) of more than nominal value if
    such acceptance is appropriate or consistent with the interests of the
    Philippines, and permitted by the head of office, branch or agency to which
    he belongs.
    The Ombudsman shall prescribe such regulations as may be necessary to
    carry out the purpose of this subsection, including pertinent reporting and
    disclosure requirements.

    Nothing in this Act shall be construed to restrict or prohibit any


    educational, scientific or cultural exchange programs subject to national
    security requirements.
