		<description><![CDATA[In January, to the surprise of many, the Sentencing Commission issued draft proposed revisions to the Sentencing Guidelines provisions on C&#038;E programs.  Some of the proposals have been the source of confusion within the C&#038;E community, such as a section that would require managers to “be aware of the organization’s document retention policies and [...]]]></description>

Nevada’s law requires “data collectors,” including government agencies and businesses, that accept [...]]]></description>

Sympathy can quickly turn to resentment as jumpy employees around her worry that every cough is sending battalions of pesky microbes marching [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here are three resolutions I&#8217;d love to see the ethics and compliance community adopt for 2010. 
First, let&#8217;s promote innovative approaches to regulation that are less descriptive of process, and focus instead on real accountability. For example, SOX mandated an anonymous reporting channel for employees to report financial fraud or misconduct. Consequently, businesses adopted some [...]]]></description>

Look at Judge Rakoff&#8217;s comments in the B of A/Merrill case; the recent ACL Regulation FD enforcement case or how Goldman Sachs &#8220;blinked&#8221; on bonuses.

Companies can probably expect more vigorous EU competition law enforcement from Mr. Almunia, in particular, involving abuses of dominant position, vertical restraints and issues involving the antitrust/IP interface (e.g. refusals to license, discriminatory licensing etc.) [...]]]></description>

On the enforcement front, the U.S. Supreme Court will announce its decision in the In Re Bilski case this Spring 2010, regarding the patentability of software and business methods.

Our weight reduction goal for the New Year will be to reduce the burden placed upon our company by those &#8220;dumb&#8221; e-mails our employees impulsively send &#8212; which unnecessarily increase our corporate risks.
