This bill amends section 119.0713 of the Florida Statutes to establish an exemption from public records requirements for body camera recordings made by code inspectors under specific circumstances. It defines key terms such as "body camera," "code inspector," and "personal representative," and stipulates that recordings taken in private residences, healthcare facilities, or other private settings are confidential and exempt from public disclosure. However, the bill allows for certain exceptions where recordings may be disclosed, such as to individuals depicted in the recordings or for official governmental purposes. Additionally, local governments are required to retain these recordings for at least 90 days.

The legislation also includes a statement of public necessity, emphasizing the need for confidentiality due to the sensitive nature of the information captured by body cameras. It mandates that the Division of Library and Information Services of the Department of State adopt a retention requirement for these recordings by a specified date. Furthermore, the exemption is subject to future legislative review and will be repealed on October 2, 2031, unless reenacted. The bill is designed to balance the need for transparency in code inspections with the privacy rights of individuals captured in the recordings.
