Florida Senate - 2022 SB 850 28-01065-22 2022850__ Page 19 of 36 CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions. for purposes of this

Section
Section 815.045, Florida Statutes, is amended 532 to read: 533 815.045 Trade secret information.—The Legislature finds 534 that it is a public necessity that trade secret information as 535 defined in s. 812.081, and as provided for in s. 815.04(3), be 536 expressly made confidential and exempt from the public records 537 law because it is a felony to disclose such records. Due to the 538 legal uncertainty as to whether a public employee would be 539 protected from a felony conviction if otherwise complying with 540
chapter 119, and with s. 24(a), Art. I of the State 541 Constitution, it is imperative that a public records exemption 542 be created. The Legislature in making disclosure of trade 543 secrets a crime has clearly established the importance attached 544 to trade secret protection.
Disclosing trade secrets in an 545 agency’s possession would negatively impact the bus iness 546 interests of those providing an agency such trade secrets by 547 damaging them in the marketplace, and those entities and 548 individuals disclosing such trade secrets would hesitate to 549 cooperate with that agency, which would impair the effective and 550 efficient administration of governmental functions. Thus, the 551
Florida Senate - 2022 SB 850 28-01065-22 2022850__ Page 20 of 36 CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions. public and private harm in disclosing trade secrets 552 significantly outweighs any public benefit derived from 553 disclosure, and the public’s ability to scrutinize and monitor 554 agency action is not diminished by nondisclosure of trade 555 secrets. 556 Reviser’s note.—Amended to conform to the repeal of s. 815.04(3) 557 by this act. 558
Section 42. Paragraphs (
