Senate Bill 1071 amends the Government Code to establish that information concerning the employment of an employee or the service of a trustee of a public employee pension system is public information and is not made confidential, removed from the application of state law governing public information, or otherwise excepted from required public availability under that law by any statute intended to protect the records of persons as members, beneficiaries, or retirees of a public employee pension system in their capacity as such. The bill requires that information concerning such matters be released only to the extent that it is not excepted from required disclosure under specified provisions of the public information law.
