An Act relating to participation in matters before the Board of Fisheries and the Board of Game by the members of the respective boards; and providing for an effective date.

HB 33 amends Alaska's ethics rules for members of the Board of Fisheries and Board of Game. It clarifies that these members are not disqualified from participating in board discussions if they have personal or family financial interests in fish or game-related businesses, but they must refrain from voting if a supervisor or majority determines their involvement would violate ethics laws. The bill requires members to disclose conflicts in writing and allows the supervisor or board to decide whether voting is permitted, ensuring transparency while permitting deliberation. This procedural change directly affects board members managing fisheries and wildlife resources, with no substantive policy shifts beyond ethics compliance.
