Revised Code of Washington - RCW Title 42 Public Officers And Agencies - Section 42.56.530 Review of agency denial

§ 42.56.530. Review of agency denial

Whenever a state agency concludes that a public record is exempt from disclosure and denies a person opportunity to inspect or copy a public record for that reason, the person may request the attorney general to review the matter. The attorney general shall provide the person with his or her written opinion on whether the record is exempt.

Nothing in this section shall be deemed to establish an attorney-client relationship between the attorney general and a person making a request under this section.
