Sec. 0.101  Purpose.

    (a) The Department of the Treasury Employee Rules of Conduct (Rules) 
are separate from and additional to the Standards of Ethical Conduct for 
Employees of the Executive Branch (Executive Branch-wide Standards) (5 
CFR part 2635) and the Supplemental Standards of Ethical Conduct for 
Employees of the Department of the Treasury (Treasury Supplemental 
Standards) (to be codified at 5 CFR part 3101). The Rules prescribe 
employee rules of conduct and procedure and provide for disciplinary 
action for the violation of the Rules, the Treasury Supplemental 
Standards, the Executive Branch-wide Standards, and any other rule, 
regulation or law governing Department employees.
    (b) The Rules are not all-inclusive and may be modified by 
interpretive guidelines and procedures issued by the Department's 
bureaus. The absence of a specific published rule of conduct covering an 
action does not constitute a condonation of that action or indicate that 
the action would not result in corrective or disciplinary action.
