Unless otherwise stated in this Chapter, consultants for departments and agencies covered by this Chapter shall be deemed designated employees for the purposes of this Chapter and shall disclose economic interests in Disclosure Category 1; provided, however, that the director of the department or agency for which a consultant works may determine in writing that the consultant is not required to comply with the disclosure requirements described in this section or is required to disclose economic interests in a disclosure category other than Disclosure Category 1 because the consultant performs a range of duties that are limited in scope. Such a determination shall include a description of the consultant's duties and, based upon that description, a statement of the extent of disclosure requirements. The determination shall be a public record and shall be retained for public inspection in the same manner and location as statements filed under this Chapter.
