10 Employee to report bankruptcy etc

(1) If a Public Service employee (other than a person employed in casual employment) becomes bankrupt or makes a composition, arrangement or assignment for the benefit of the employee's creditors, the employee must--

(a) immediately notify the agency head in writing of the bankruptcy, composition, arrangement or assignment, and

(b) within such period as the agency head specifies, provide the agency head with such further information with respect to the cause of the bankruptcy or of the making of the composition, arrangement or assignment as the agency head requires.

(2) If any such employee is the head of a Public Service agency, subclause (1) applies as if references to the agency head were references to a Minister to whom the agency is responsible.

(3) An agency head may, as a condition of the engagement of a person in a role in the Public Service agency relating to financial management in the agency, require the person to declare, before the person is engaged in that role, whether or not the person has at any time been declared bankrupt or made a composition, arrangement or assignment for the benefit of the person's creditors.
