The bill amends section 943.03102 of the Florida Statutes to provide an exemption from public records requirements for certain information related to the designation of organizations as domestic or foreign terrorist organizations by the Chief of Domestic Security. Specifically, it adds a new paragraph (g) that states any information critical to state or national security, as provided by the Chief of Domestic Security to the Governor and Cabinet, is exempt from disclosure under public records laws. This exemption is subject to the Open Government Sunset Review Act and will be repealed on October 2, 2031, unless it is reviewed and saved from repeal by the Legislature.

Additionally, the bill emphasizes the necessity of keeping sensitive information related to national and domestic security confidential to ensure public safety. It requires the Chief of Domestic Security to consult with various law enforcement and national security organizations before designating an organization as a terrorist entity. The act will take effect concurrently with HB 1471 or similar legislation, provided that such legislation is adopted in the same session or an extension thereof.
