Bill Summary
An act relating to a review under the Open Government Sunset Review Act; amending s. 319.1414, F.S., which provides an exemption from public records requirements for information received by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles as a result of an investigation or examination of a department authorized private rebuilt inspection provider; removing the scheduled repeal of the exemption; amending ss. 319.25, 320.861, and 322.71, F.S., which provide exemptions from public records requirements for information received by the department as a result of an investigation or examination of a person suspected of having violated certain laws, rules, or orders; removing the scheduled repeal of such exemptions; providing an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill makes permanent several exemptions from public records requirements for information gathered by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) during investigations or examinations. Specifically, it removes the scheduled repeal dates for exemptions related to information obtained from private rebuilt inspection providers, as well as information related to investigations of individuals suspected of violating certain laws, rules, or orders concerning vehicle titles, dealer licenses, and driver licenses. The Open Government Sunset Review Act, which mandates that certain laws expire unless reviewed and reenacted by the legislature, would have caused these exemptions to end on October 2, 2026, but this bill ensures they will continue indefinitely.
