Hi there

Record request #19-6430 has been closed. The closure reason supplied was:

Dear Requester:

We reviewed your request for “any and all materials, indices, directives, and guiding documentation regarding the forms generated and retained by this agency”.

Your request was made under the California Public Records Act (the Act). The Department is cognizant of its responsibilities under the Act. It recognizes the statutory scheme was enacted to maximize citizen access to the workings of government. The Act does not mandate disclosure of all documents within the government’s possession. Rather, by specific exemption and reference to other statutes, the Act recognizes that there are boundaries where the public’s right to access must be balanced against such weighty considerations as the right of privacy, a right of constitutional dimension under California Constitution, Article 1, Section 1. The law also exempts from disclosure records that are privileged or confidential or otherwise exempt under either express provisions of the Act or pursuant to applicable federal or state law, per California Government Code Sections 6254(b); 6254(c); 6254(f); 6254(k); and 6255.

Your request is not “a request for a copy of records that reasonably describes an identifiable record or records” [see Government Code Section 6253(b)]. We have made several unsuccessful attempts to reach you for clarification, but did not hear back; therefore, we are closing your request.

For your information, we are providing you a link below to our Department’s Policies and Procedures/Training webpage. This webpage may contain documents that you are seeking for.
