AI Summary
This bill amends Michigan's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to provide exemptions from disclosure for certain legislative records. Specifically, it exempts records of a personal nature that would constitute an unwarranted invasion of privacy, communications between legislators and constituents, advisory communications within or between public bodies, records related to internal or legislative investigations, trade secrets and confidential financial information, and records subject to attorney-client or other legal privileges. The bill also clarifies that the FOIA does not create a private right of action or limit the privileges and immunities granted under the Michigan constitution. The bill takes effect on January 1, 2019, and is contingent on the enactment of a related bill.
