Bill Summary

This bill prohibits government entities from releasing the home addresses of corrections officers, parole officers, probation officers, as well as current and retired law enforcement officers. Under the Open Public Records Act, P.L.1963, c.73 (C.47:1A-1 et seq.), this information is considered a government record and is available to the public. The bill excludes the home addresses of these public safety employees from the definition of "government record." The bill also requires custodians of government records to redact the addresses from any records prior to granting public access, unless the information is sought for use by a governmental agency in carrying out its functions, or a private person seeking to enforce a child support order.
