[edit] Kan. House advances bill on records exceptions

"The Kansas House has given first-round approval to a bill renewing 30 exceptions to the state's Open Records Act for five more years.

The action came on a voice vote Monday. Another, final vote is expected Tuesday.

The Open Records Act generally requires government agencies to keep the records they collect and compile accessible to the public. But it contains 47 exceptions allowing officials keep certain documents confidential."
