GRAMA

The Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA)
is a comprehensive law dealing with management of government records.
GRAMA states who has access to records and how the law is enforced.
It is an attempt to balance the public's constitutional right of access to
information concerning public business, the individual's constitutional
right of privacy when the government gathers personal data, and
the public policy interest in allowing a government to restrict access
to certain records for the public good.
