This bill amends the Right-to-Know Law in Pennsylvania, specifically updating the definition of "local agency." The new definition now includes an additional category, specifying that a "local agency" encompasses "an association as defined in 68 Pa.C.S. 5103," which relates to definitions. This change aims to clarify the types of entities that fall under the jurisdiction of the Right-to-Know Law, thereby enhancing transparency and access to public information.
The bill will take effect 60 days after its enactment, ensuring that the updated definitions are implemented in a timely manner. By broadening the scope of what constitutes a local agency, the legislation seeks to improve public access to information and promote accountability among various governmental entities and associations within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
