U Memo 26-02
August 19, 2025
Redactions to Executive Session Minutes

Requester sought an unredacted copy of the executive meeting minutes (Executive Minutes) for the Agribusiness Development Corporation (ADC) Board of Directors meeting on August 8, 2023.  Based on a First Circuit Court order issued in Pub. First L. Ctr. v. Def. Council; Jon N. Ikenaga; and Agribusiness Dev. Corp. Bd. of Dir., Civ. No. 1CCV-24-0000050 (Haw. Cir. Ct. January 10, 2024), and the fact that the Executive Minutes have now been publicly disclosed except for minor redactions allowed by the Court, OIP advised that ADC should disclose the Executive Minutes to Requester with only the redactions allowed by the Court’s order.
