Bill Summary
This bill revises the definitions section of what is commonly known as the open public records act, N.J.S.A.47:1A-1 et seq., to include e-mail addresses on the list of confidential items that must be redacted from any public record disclosed under the provisions of the act.
AI Summary
This bill amends the definition section of New Jersey's open public records act, commonly known as the "Open Public Records Act" (OPRA), to explicitly include email addresses as confidential information that must be redacted from public records. This means that when a government agency releases records under OPRA, they will be required to remove any email addresses found within those documents to protect individual privacy, unless specific exceptions apply.
