[edit] Attorney General's Office: Ensuring Open Government

"The Attorney General and Ombudsman enhance enforcement and compliance efforts relating to Iowa’s Open Meetings and Public Records laws. Attorney General Tom Miller today announced enhancements of his office’s role in enforcing the state’s open meetings and public records laws.

Miller said Tuesday that he has appointed an Assistant Attorney General to specifically handle such cases, and that he has reached out to media groups and others, inviting them to help by reporting violations. He said his office will continue education and outreach efforts in this area and he also asked the public to contact the State Ombudsman with complaints needing investigation."
