Opinion Letter Summary

Opinion Letter No. 94-06
April 28, 1994
Former Governors’ Records Public

Under the UIPA, former governors’ records sent to State Archives must be made available for public
inspection and copying upon request, even though in the past they have been subject to a ten-year
restriction under a pre-statehood policy adopted by the Board of Commissioners of Public Archives.
Information protected by the UIPA’s personal privacy exception and frustration of a legitimate
government function exception may be segregated before the records are disclosed; however, once
the ten-year restriction has expired, the records must be made public in their entirety.
