Bill > SB240

This bill requires state boards of examination or registration to make their proceedings open to public inspection and maintain a public roster of licensed or registered practitioners. Specifically, it mandates that the record of a board's proceedings be accessible for public inspection and copying, and that the register of applicants be made available upon request. The bill also requires boards to submit annual reports to the Governor and Legislature detailing their financial information, licensing activities, and complaints. Additionally, the bill prohibits boards from disclosing sensitive personally identifiable information of applicants, licensees, and registrants, except as necessary to comply with law. The goal of the bill is to promote greater transparency and public access to information about state licensing and registration processes.
