Abstract
The Deputy Minister's letter of July 5th appears to specify as bases for the discipline here in issue:
- that the grievor's consulting work with the developer was contrary to the chief engineer's memorandum of February 28, 1977;
- that accepting employment which led to (public) criticism of departmental policies and fellow employees involved "a conflict of interest"; and
- that the grievor's letter of February 8th constituted public criticism of department policies.
