HF 2154: Relating to release of certain records maintained by the statewide fire and police retirement system

What it does

This bill concerns what member records of the statewide fire and police retirement system established by Code chapter 411 are public records for purposes of Code chapter governing open records. The bill strikes language for the pension system that pension system member and beneficiary records containing personal information are not public records. Instead, the bill provides that records of the pension system containing social security numbers, specifying amounts accumulated in members’ accounts, containing names or addresses of members or their beneficiaries, containing amounts of payments to members or their beneficiaries, and containing financial or commercial information that relates to the investment of retirement system funds are not public records for the purposes of Code chapter 22.
