S.331

North Carolina S331 makes documents prepared by legislative employees for legislators public records.

North Carolina S331 amends existing law to make documents prepared by legislative employees for legislators public records. This includes bills, resolutions, proposed amendments, committee substitutes, and conference committee reports once introduced or offered. Other documents resulting from drafting or information requests are public records if distributed at a meeting not held in executive or closed session. The bill repeals certain confidentiality provisions for information requests and documents acquired by legislative employees.
