HB1482

Mississippi HB1482 would exempt certain pre-decisional and deliberative documents from the Mississippi Public Records Act.

Mississippi HB1482 would amend the Mississippi Public Records Act of 1983 to exempt certain documents from public access. Specifically, it would exempt preliminary drafts, notes, recommendations, and intra-agency or interagency memoranda in which opinions are expressed or policies are formulated or recommended in the pre-decisional and deliberative process by an agency. This exemption applies to documents that are pre-decisional and deliberative, meaning they are created before a decision is made and involve the expression of opinions or the formulation of policy.
