The new public access law has me wondering. According to the article on the home page information can be withheld to protect privacy and security.
Who will determine what is un releasable?
Is it up to the government agency to prove to a judge that it needs to remain private or does the party requesting the information need to prove with out seeing the information it is not privileged?
