                    Work Group The FOIA 
                    Council has not established any subcommittees for the 2024 
                    interim. However, pursuant to SB 
                    324 (Roem, 2024), there is a work group that will study 
                    charges as directed by the third enactment clause of that 
                    bill. While the work group is not a subcommittee or public 
                    body as defined in FOIA, information about its work will be 
                    published here. Any interested parties who wish to participate 
                    in this study should contact FOIA 
                    Council staff.
