• Actual conflict of interest – an actual conflict of interest involves a direct conflict between the candidate’s duties and responsibilities of the role and existing private interests.
• Perceived conflict of interest – a perceived or apparent conflict of interest can exist where it could be perceived, or it appears, that a candidate’s private interests could improperly influence the performance of the candidate’s duties and responsibilities of the role – whether or not this is in fact the case.

• 8.2 What is an interest?
• An interest is anything that can have an impact on an individual or group. The impact can bring a benefit or disadvantage to us or others. Interests can be public or personal. There are two main types of interests – pecuniary and non-pecuniary – that can impact on either the public interest or a private/personal interest.
• Public interest – The public interest refers to the collective interest of the entire community – not the sum of individual interests, nor the interest of a particular group.
• Private/personal interest – a private or personal interest are those private, professional or business interests that can benefit or disadvantage us as individuals, or others we may wish to benefit or disadvantage. They also include the personal, professional or business interests of individuals or groups we associate with, such as family members and friends. Private interests include a wide range of external activities including financial and economic interests, family or private businesses, clubs or interest groups, and involvement in other employment.
• Pecuniary interest – a pecuniary interest involves an actual or potential financial gain or loss. It may result from the candidate or someone associated with them (e.g. family member) owning property, holding shares or a position in a company bidding for government work, accepting gifts or hospitality, or receiving an income from a second job . Money does not actually have to change hands for an interest to be pecuniary.
• Non-pecuniary interest – a non-pecuniary interest does not have a financial component but may arise from personal or family relationships, involvement in sporting, social, trade union, community or cultural activities. Non-pecuniary interests include any tendency toward favour or prejudice resulting from friendship, animosity or other personal involvement that could bias your judgement or decisions.
