The bill amends W.S. 17-28-108(c) to modify the conditions under which the Secretary of State can release confidential information maintained by registered agents. It specifies that while the Secretary of State shall keep records confidential, they may release such information not only pursuant to a court-ordered subpoena or to a bona fide law enforcement agency for criminal investigations, but also upon written application to a county assessor or county treasurer for official business purposes. Additionally, any records obtained by the county assessor or county treasurer must also be kept confidential, with similar restrictions on their release.
The effective date of this act is set for July 1, 2025. The changes aim to enhance the accessibility of certain confidential information for county officials while maintaining necessary confidentiality protections.
