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, in accordance with the Oklahoma Sunset Law. The Commission will continue to consist of a Chairman appointed by the Governor, the State Librarian as Vice Chairman and Secretary, the Lieutenant Governor, the State Auditor and Inspector, and the State Treasurer.

Additionally, the bill clarifies the Commission's authority over the disposition of public records and archives from state officers and agencies, while explicitly stating that this authority does not extend to the records of political subdivisions or the confidential records of the Oklahoma Tax Commission. This legislative change aims to ensure the ongoing functionality and oversight of the Archives and Records Commission for an extended period.
