AI Summary

This bill mandates that the Division of Consumer Affairs, part of the Department of Law and Public Safety, establish and regularly update an "open data portal" on its website, making certain non-confidential statistical information publicly accessible. This information will include aggregated data on license, registration, and certification applications and renewals, average processing times for these applications, the total number of active licenses, registrations, and certifications, their distribution by county, exam pass and fail rates for various professions, and the number of consumer complaints received along with response times. The portal will allow users to sort data by profession and compare it year-over-year, all while adhering to privacy laws and the provisions of the open public records act, which ensures public access to government records.
