An Act To Implement The Recommendations Of The Right To Know Advisory Committee Concerning Certain Existing Public Records Exceptions

Summary

The act revises several Maine statutes to limit public access to sensitive personal information, including DNA database entries, drug‑test results, applicant contact details, vehicle records, and accident reports. It specifies which law‑enforcement and medical agencies may view DNA data and makes most other personal data confidential unless the individual consents or a law requires disclosure. The changes aim to protect privacy while still allowing necessary investigative and regulatory use.
