[edit] Senate takes up measure to tighten GRAMA requirements
"A proposal to further restrict access to some public records that are involved in litigation passed its first test in the Senate Tuesday when the Government Operations and Political Subdivisions Committee approved it unanimously.
HB122, sponsored by Rep. Douglas Aagard, R-Kaysville, makes it easier to deny public requests and keep records classified if there is a chance they will be required as part of a lawsuit.
Aagard's bill also makes adjustments to the "balancing test" provision for eight of the 56 types of records covered under the Government Records Access and Management Act. He said the bill the Senate would address was the product of a lengthy compromise process and differed from the version passed by the House."
