This bill proposes updates to the Arizona Revised Statutes concerning the Board of Psychologist Examiners, specifically amending section 32-2082. The current law allows the board and its authorized agents to examine and copy documents related to a licensee's professional competence and conduct. The bill modifies this by changing references from "its authorized agents" to "the board's authorized agents" for clarity. Additionally, it updates the timeline for petitioning the board regarding subpoenas from "within five days of receiving" to "within five days after receiving."

A significant change introduced by the bill is the requirement that the party who filed a complaint must be provided copies of all documents received and reviewed by the board during the investigation, except where restricted by state or federal law. This contrasts with the current law, which states that documents associated with an investigation are confidential and cannot be released without a court order. The bill also includes technical changes and will become effective on the general effective date.
