An Act amending the act of February 14, 2008 (P.L.6, No.3), known as the Right-to-Know Law, in preliminary provisions, further providing for definitions.
SB 873 amends Pennsylvania's Right-to-Know Law by expanding the definition of "local agency" to explicitly include charter schools, cyber charter schools, public trade or vocational schools, and certain associations defined under state law. This change ensures these entities must comply with the law's requirements for public access to government records. The amendment clarifies which local educational and governmental bodies are covered under the law without altering existing procedures or creating new obligations.
