Bill Summary
An act relating to a review under the Open Government Sunset Review Act; amending s. 288.075, F.S., which provides an exemption from public record requirements for certain information held by an economic development agency; removing the scheduled repeal of the exemption; providing an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill permanently removes the scheduled expiration of an existing exemption related to confidential records for small business loan programs. Specifically, the bill eliminates language that would have automatically repealed a section of Florida Statutes (section 288.075) on October 2, 2026, under the Open Government Sunset Review Act. The Open Government Sunset Review Act typically requires periodic legislative review of public records exemptions to ensure they remain necessary and justified. By removing the scheduled repeal language, the bill effectively makes the existing confidentiality provisions for certain economic development agency information permanent. This means that certain sensitive information related to small business loan programs will continue to be exempt from public records requirements without the need for future legislative renewal. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law.
