Establishes Open Public Records Act Review Committee.
This bill establishes the Open Public Records Act (OPRA) Review Committee to examine how New Jersey's open records law operates in practice. The 11-member committee - including government officials, media representatives, law enforcement, and public advocates - will review OPRA's implementation, focusing on balancing public access with privacy rights, addressing commercial use concerns, and investigating complaints of harassment through records requests. It will consider potential changes like limiting commercial requests, adding response time buffers for agencies, and modernizing fees, but will not amend the law itself. The committee must report its findings and recommendations to the Legislature and Governor within one year of its first meeting, after which it will expire.
