Section 4 provides a definition of what a public official is. It lays out the different bodies of which a public official is a member. It also lists the Attorney General and Comptroller and Auditor General. It lays out in subsection (2) the role of a director, the role of an employee, and then latter sections, particularly subsection (3), make it clear who it does not apply to.
