Oklahoma Open Meeting Act; modifying definition. Effective date.

SB 2162 modifies the definition of "public body" under Oklahoma's Open Meeting Act. It adds specific exclusions, such as certain administrative staff meetings (e.g., faculty meetings at universities), multidisciplinary teams in schools, and some committees (like those for child placement decisions), clarifying that these are not subject to open meeting requirements. The bill also repeals a prior section related to the Legislature. These changes narrow the scope of entities required to comply with open meeting rules. The bill takes effect on November 1, 2026.
