Relating to public record request fees.
This bill amends Oregon law to require state agencies to waive all fees for public records requests made by members of the Oregon Legislative Assembly. It directly affects legislators who seek records from state agencies, eliminating cost barriers for their official inquiries. The key provision (added to ORS 192.324) mandates that agencies must not charge fees for such requests, while maintaining existing fee structures for other requesters. This change streamlines access to government records for legislative oversight without altering general public access rules.
