RFP's tend to be proprietary information and are usually confidential unless they are the winning bid, so it's unlikely that anyone is going to volunteer to share them. It's also common for there to be a nondisclosure clause in the RFP... so even if someone wanted to share, they may not be able to.  Your best shot is going to be searching online for "RFP Templates" or checking with the company/agency you wish to submit a bid to, to see if they have samples of some of the successful ones for you to view. Confidentiality rules are very tricky at this level so it's best to look at what others have already chosen to make public.

There's not a good, solid reason for this.\n\nBut basically, it's like getting your first official response on record that you are going to respond truthfully.  Then later if it is found that you haven't, perjury offenses can be brought against you on the grounds that you were sworn in to tell the truth.\n\nThink of it as you publicly acknowledging that you are required to tell the truth.  It doesn't matter if you're lying or not at this point.  The fact that you are stating it for the record is recognizing that you are consciously aware of what you're about to be held accountable for.\n\nit might be silly, but it's necessary.

When you went and started the business knowing about the contract, you took a chance that they wouldn't find out about it. I guess they did.  You can try and prove the contract was under duress, but that's going to be next to impossible to prove, especially without a lawyer to advise you.\n\nContracts are legally binding in the US because without them, the economy would fall apart from corruption.  Good luck.

First answer here is good, but I might disagree.  \n\nIs the co-worker going to be out some substantial money because of this?\n\nDoes the boss have the right under company policy to do what he is doing?\n\nThose are a couple of questions that come to mind right off the top.  You need to decide if you wish to continue to work for someone with these kinds of ethics.  If he's really doing something unethical to your co-worker, what makes you think he won't do it to you?  \n\nYou don't say, but is your business licensed by some government agency?  Is it possible that agency might just "happen" to stumble in for an inspection and be able to see what you're talking about?  Is it possible your co-worker can find out on their own in such a way that your boss wouldn't be able to assume it was coming from you?  \n\nWhat would your co-worker say or think about you if they found out you knew and did not tell them?  Is that important to you?  \n\nAny chance the client might call to speak with your co-worker about the file?  Would doing so alert your co-worker to the fact that the file had been "misplaced"?\n\nYou're in a tough spot.  Good luck with this.

Think this is the Data Protection act 1998 and it states that you should not hold information on others any longer than is required for the purpose it was gathered. The information you hold should only be used for the purpose specified, so you cant release it to any third party without the persons consent or use it for any other reason.\n\nHave a look at this site http://www.businesslink.gov.uk. There is some info on it about the DP Act

A secret is 'created' when one or more person(s) decides to withold information from another person or group to shield themselves from the consequences of the information reaching the target that you are hiding it from. It must also be information that they have a right to know, even if it would be better for them not to know. Confused? Let me explain it this way....\n\nIf I knew that someone was throwing a surprise party for you and I don't tell the lady at the grocery store -- then there is no secret because she has no right to know in the first place, but if I see you and you ask if I am aware of any such party -- I must keep it a secret. You have the right to know, even though it is in your best interest to keep it unknown to you and I want to shield you from knowing so that I do not ruin the surprise. Does that make sense?

There are confidentiality laws in most countries that restrict what information can be shared between organizations.  \n\nThere are also such acts as the Equal Opportunity act in the US to prevent discrimination.

It depends on the individual state through the state ethics office or the secretary of state office. For federal officials personal disclosures are filed with the Federal Election Commission:

The violation of the contract would be a civil matter. If, however, there was fraud (as often is the case with some "contractors" after a disaster) then that would be a criminal matter.

It would be dependent upon the specific Non-Disclosure/Non-compete clause the employee signed with the audit firm. Also relevant would be the laws of the state in which the agreement was subject to.\n\nSorry to be so vague - but there are a lot of details that would have to be spelled out to make a specific answer.
