The bill, ENROLLED HOUSE BILL NO. 1034, amends Section 305 of Title 67 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which pertains to the Archives and Records Commission. The primary focus of the bill is to re-create the Commission and extend its termination date from July 1, 2025, to July 1, 2028. This extension is in accordance with the Oklahoma Sunset Law, which mandates periodic review of state agencies and commissions to determine their continued necessity.

In addition to the extension, the bill outlines the composition of the Commission, which includes a Chairman appointed by the Governor, the State Librarian as Vice Chairman and Secretary, and other key state officials. The Commission is granted exclusive authority over the disposition of public records and archives from state entities, while maintaining exemptions for certain confidential records, specifically those of the Oklahoma Tax Commission.
