In accordance with KRS 11A, the Executive Branch Ethics Commission is responsible for reviewing the personal financial interests of the constitutional officers and management personnel in state government in order to prevent conflicts of interest. Additionally, the Commission issues advisory opinions with regard to ethical conduct, investigates and enforces possible violations of the Code, and provides a registration mechanism for executive agency lobbyists.
The budget in each fiscal year requires all penalties collected or received by the Executive Branch Ethics Commission to be credited to a trust and agency fund account to be used by the Commission for the cost of conducting administrative hearings.
The Governor's budget includes additional funding in the amount of $16,500 in fiscal year 2027 and $33,900 in fiscal year 2028 to fund a 2% salary increment in fiscal year 2027 and an additional 2% in fiscal year 2028. The General Fund portion is $11,900 and $24,400, respectively.
