1. The records of the Governor's Office, which include correspondence sent or received

by the Governor or employees of the office in the performance of governmental duties,

are the property of the State of Nevada and must be transferred to the Division before

the Governor leaves office. 2. The Division shall make the records of a former Governor available for inspection,

except: (a) If that correspondence identifies or can be readily associated with the identity

of any person other than a public officer or employee acting in an official capacity

and has been in the possession of the Division for less than 10 years, the name and

facts which identify that person must be deleted before the correspondence is disclosed,

unless the person so named or identified is deceased or gives prior written permission

for the disclosure. (b) Any records that have been declared by law to be confidential are not subject

to the provisions of this subsection during the period of confidentiality specified

in NRS 378.300 . (c) Any agreement between a former Governor and the Division made before the passage

of this act which provides for a period of confidentiality is unaffected by the provisions

of this section. (d) Records of the Governor's Office which are transferred to the Division during

the Governor's term of office remain in the custody of the Governor and are not subject

to the provisions of this subsection until after he or she leaves office.
