Sec. 9. (a) Under the authority of the governor, a report shall be prepared, on or before December 1 annually, advising the general assembly of the personal information systems, or parts thereof, of agencies subject to this chapter, which are recommended to be maintained on a confidential basis by specific statutory authorization because their disclosure would constitute an invasion of personal privacy and there is no compelling, demonstrable and overriding public interest in disclosure. Such recommendations may include, but not be limited to, specific personal information systems or parts thereof which can be categorized as follows:
(1) Personal information maintained with respect to students and clients, patients or other individuals receiving social, medical, vocational, supervisory or custodial care or services directly or indirectly from public bodies.
(2) Personal information, excepting salary information, maintained with respect to employees, appointees or elected officials of any public body or applicants for such positions.
(3) Information required of any taxpayer in connection with the assessment or collection of any income tax.
(4) Information revealing the identity of persons who file complaints with administrative, investigative, law enforcement or penology agencies.
(b) In addition, such report may list records or categories of records, which are recommended to be exempted from public disclosure by specific statutory authorization for reasons other than that their disclosure would constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, along with justification therefor.
(c) A report described in this section must be in an electronic format under IC 5-14-6.
