State Bar President Tom Vick Statement on Proposed Records Policy
State Bar of Texas President Tom Vick today released the following statement on a proposed internal records policy pending before the Board of Directors.
“Currently, the State Bar lacks a policy on how to handle requests from officers and directors for records not subject to the Texas Public Information Act when the executive director has concerns about a particular request. The proposed policy is designed to provide more transparency, not less, by giving the final authority to release such records to the board instead of the executive director.”
