2017 Arkansas Code
Title 25 - State Government
Chapter 18 - Public Records
Subchapter 6 - Retention of Public Records by State Agencies
§ 25-18-601. Legislative intent
Universal Citation: AR Code § 25-18-601 (2017)
- (a) The General Assembly finds that while the Freedom of Information Act of 1967, § 25-19-101 et seq., provides disclosure guarantees for public records, due to Acts 2001, No. 1252, there is no general requirement for agencies to preserve public records.
- (b) Therefore, the State of Arkansas is in need of a general records retention law to preserve records that are commonly found in most state agencies for disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act of 1967, § 25-19-101 et seq., for historical purposes and for the efficient operation of state government.
