The bill amends section 943.0315 of the Florida Statutes to establish exemptions from public record and meeting requirements concerning reports and notifications related to adversarial threats to state assets and critical infrastructure. Specifically, it mandates that the Chief of Domestic Security produce a confidential report on these threats by July 1, 2026, which will be exempt from public disclosure under certain constitutional provisions. Additionally, notifications to owners and operators of critical infrastructure identified as potential targets will also be confidential and exempt from public records laws. Meetings of the Council on Pacific Conflict where these reports or notifications are discussed will be exempt from public meeting requirements.

The bill includes statements of public necessity, emphasizing that the confidentiality of the report and notifications is crucial to prevent malicious acts that could arise from the disclosure of vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure and military installations. It also stipulates that these exemptions are subject to the Open Government Sunset Review Act, with a repeal date set for October 2, 2030, unless the Legislature reenacts the provisions. The act will take effect concurrently with related legislation, ensuring a cohesive approach to addressing security concerns in the context of potential Pacific conflicts.
