FOIA Council subcommittees to continue study of some bills

A bill introduced by Del. Mark L. Keam, D-35th, would open the records to all in-state or out-of-state residents equally. The Rights and Responsibilities Subcommittee of the FOIA Council on Monday agreed to further study Keam's bill, but did not set a date to do so. The committee also agreed to move forward with further study on a bill brought by Del. Scott Surovell, D-44th, that would make the State Corporation Commission subject to the Freedom of Information Act. (News / Industry)
