Kansas Open Records Act advances in House committee
After about two hours of debate the House Federal and State Affairs Committee approved the Kansas Open Records Act. The bill requires public records to be open for inspection and copies allowed unless exempted, with several protections for confidential personal and investigative information. It would cover governors' records and require donation of governors’ documents to state libraries or universities within two years of leaving office. The act also allows denial of access for records prohibited by law, privileged under evidence rules, or certain medical and personnel files.
