Notice of Clarification The Board has deleted one of the Questions and Answers previously published on rule G-37.
In the January 1996 issue of MSRB Reports, the Board published a question-and-answer (Q&A)notice concerning rule G-37 on political contributions and prohibitions on municipal securities business.[1] Q&A number 3 contained in that notice discussed the applicability of rule G-37 when a person, who is not associated with a dealer, sends a contribution to an issuer official, along with a writing which states that all or a portion of the contribution is being made on behalf of another person, who is a municipal finance professional. At a meeting held after the publication of the notice, the Board determined to delete this particular Q&A (as well as language in the notice referencing this situation).[2] Accordingly, please make a notation in your January issue of MSRB Reports to reflect the deletion of Q&A number 3.
