California Public Records Act: conforming revisions.

Summary
The California Public Records Act requires state and local agencies to make their records available for public inspection, unless an exemption from disclosure applies.

The bill would only become operative if the related bill recodifying the act is enacted and becomes operative on January 1, 2022. The bill would also specify that any other bill enacted by the Legislature during the 2020 calendar year that takes effect on or before January 1, 2022, and that affects a provision of this bill shall prevail over this act, except as specified.
