modify or abridge the provisions of the Political Reform Act of 1974 (Government Code Section

in the Political Reform Act of 1974. and the regulations of the Fair Political. Practices Commission
(2 Cal.Code of Regs Section 18100 et.sea.).These definitions and regulations,and any amendments
to the Act or regulations, are incorporated by reference into this Conflict of Interest Code.
Summaries of certain definitions are contained in the attached Addendum which is provided for
convenience of reference only and is not a part of this Code.The definitions of key terms contained
