Office of Information Practices

The Office of Information Practices (OIP) has posted summaries of its latest informal opinions on OIP’s Opinion page at oip.hawaii.gov.

In U Memo 19-1 and U Memo 19-3, OIP concluded that the agencies had conducted reasonable searches for records and no responsive records were found.  In U Memo 19-2, OIP determined that the names and respective job titles of government employees are always public under section 92F-12(a)(14), HRS, even if the County had previously disclosed exact salaries, rather than salary ranges, so that the requester could ascertain the exact salary of the identified bargaining unit employees.
