-
The custodian shall make public records available for inspection by an applicant without demanding a written request. However, a written request shall be required when the custodian reasonably believes that the Act or any other law may prevent the disclosure of the record to the applicant or when the custodian believes that a written request will materially assist the Office in responding to the request. An applicant furnished a copy of any record may be required to provide the Office with a receipt for materials provided.
