What changed in the latest version
8 added · 5 removedPlain-language change summary
In the latest version of SB 1372, the requirement for individuals requesting public records has been clarified. Now, requesters must specifically affirm whether their request is for a commercial purpose, and if it is, they must provide a statement explaining how they intend to use the information. This change is important because it aims to ensure transparency and accountability regarding the use of public records, particularly when they are sought for commercial advantages.
