PUBLIC RECORDS: Provides relative to the disclosure of personnel records of public employees

HB 116 modifies how personnel records for public employees are disclosed under public records laws. The bill adds specific categories of information that must remain confidential, including data required to be secret by federal law and details that could endanger an employee's safety. It also adjusts the language used to describe how courts should handle requests for these records. These changes directly affect government agencies that manage employee files and the individuals who request access to them.
