Official statutory text

A. Any information, records or other material heretofore

voluntarily supplied to any state agency, board or commission shall

be subject to full disclosure pursuant to Section 24A.1 et seq. of

publication by the public body;

public body;

3. Computer programs or software but not data thereon;

structure. Public bodies that provide utility services to the

public may keep confidential utility supply and utility equipment

supply contracts for any industrial customer with a connected

electric load in excess of two thousand five hundred (2,500)

advantage to competitors of the customer; provided that, where a

public body performs billing or collection services for a utility

regulated by the Corporation Commission pursuant to a contractual

agreement, any customer or individual payment data obtained or

created by the public body in performance of the agreement shall not

be a record for purposes of the Oklahoma Open Records Act.
