Text

A complaint filed with the enforcing authority under W.S.
40-26-118 is an open record. Information obtained during an
investigation conducted by the enforcing authority under this
chapter can be used in any judicial proceedings or
administrative hearing relating to the complaint under this
chapter or before the administrative closure of a complaint by
the enforcing authority. The enforcing authority may disclose
to the complainant or the respondent, or representatives of the
complainant or respondent, information obtained during an
investigation if deemed necessary by the enforcing authority for
securing an appropriate resolution of a complaint. The
enforcing authority may disclose information obtained during an
investigation to a federal agency if necessary for the
processing of complaints under an agreement with the agency.
Individually identifiable health information obtained during an
investigation may not be disclosed by the enforcing authority
except to a federal agency if necessary for the processing of
complaints under an agreement with the agency. Statements made
or actions taken during conciliation efforts relating to a
complaint under this chapter may not be disclosed by the
enforcing authority, except to a federal agency if necessary for
the processing of complaints under an agreement with the agency,
and may not be used as evidence in a subsequent proceeding under
this chapter without the written consent of the parties to the
conciliation. A conciliation agreement is an open record unless
the complainant and respondent agree that it is not and the
enforcing authority determines that disclosure is not necessary
to further the purposes of this chapter.
