               Mr. Bonner, from the Committee on Ethics,

                              R E P O R T

    In accordance with rule 18(e)(2) of the Committee on Ethics 
(Committee), the Committee hereby submits the following Report 
to the House of Representatives:

                      I. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS

    On November 15, 2012, the Committee convened for the 
purpose of considering the charge issued against Joy Henrichs 
on August 16, 2012, for driving under the influence. On 
September 21, 2012, Ms. Henrichs entered a plea of guilty to 
driving under the influence, a misdemeanor, in Fairfax County 
General District Court and was sentenced to 30 days in jail 
with 25 days suspended, and was placed on supervised probation 
for one year. Ms. Henrichs' driver's license was suspended for 
one year, and Ms. Henrichs was ordered to pay a $500 fine with 
$250 suspended and to complete an alcohol treatment program. 
Ms. Henrichs has paid the fine and is complying with the terms 
of her sentence.
    The Committee voted against empanelling an investigative 
subcommittee regarding this matter. The Committee considered 
the scope and nature of Ms. Henrichs' conduct and the fine and 
disposition ordered by the Fairfax County General District 
Court. The Committee has determined that review by an 
investigative subcommittee is not required in this matter. 
Unless additional information is brought to the Committee's 
attention which warrants further action, the Committee will 
consider this matter closed.

II. STATEMENT UNDER RULE XIII, CLAUSE 3(c) OF THE RULES OF THE HOUSE OF 
                            REPRESENTATIVES

    The Committee made no special oversight findings in this 
report. No budget statement is submitted. No funding is 
authorized by any measure in this report.
