HJR No. 96 (2014)
FOIA Study
House
Joint Resolution No. 96 was passed in the 2014 Session of
the General Assembly, which directs the Virginia Freedom of
Information Advisory Council (FOIA Council) to study all exemptions
contained in the Virginia Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
to determine the continued applicability or appropriateness
of such exemptions and whether FOIA should be amended to eliminate
any exemption from FOIA that the FOIA Council determines is
no longer applicable or appropriate. The three-year study
directed by HJR No. 96 is scheduled to conclude this year,
with the expectation that it will result in legislation to
be introduced at the 2017 Session of the General Assembly.
