Summary

Existing law, the Uniform Supervision of Trustees and Fundraisers for Charitable Purposes Act, requires a commercial fundraiser for charitable purposes and a fundraising counsel for charitable purposes to register with and to file specified items with the Attorney General's Registry of Charitable Trusts and provides that the register, copies of instruments, and the reports filed with the Attorney General are subject to public inspection, as specified. Existing law requires the Attorney General to withhold any instrument so filed whose content is not exclusively for charitable purposes from public inspection, as specified. This bill would additionally include any instrument filed with the Attorney General for these purposes among those documents to be open to public inspection. The bill would, however, require the Attorney General to withhold from public inspection any report filed with any governmental entity, as specified, that is required by law to be kept confidential, specified portions of documents that do not relate to charitable purposes or charitable assets and that are not otherwise records, public and donor information that is exempt from public inspection under a certain federal law, except as specified. Existing constitutional provisions require that a statute that limits the right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest protected by the limitation and the need for protecting that interest. This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
