Potential conflict of interest. Being paid for one service and being paid for another is not a conflict of interest. It's just plain how business and politics works. The potential conflict of interest comes in if the company has any incentive to sabotage one project because they could make more money off of another. Here transparency is our resource to investigate whether these accusations are true. For instance, if there are monies not reported correctly or if there is some discrepancy between services provided and service rendered, then we would have evidence of a conflict of interest.
