NMAGO and the IPRA

Your first source; Inspection of Public Records Act here quoted in significant part.

The Inspection of Public Records Act is a New Mexico state law that provides an open window for the public and media to access information deemed of import to the public interest. This is one of the basic rights of our democratic society, Open Government. The law requires open access to almost all public records in state and local government with few exceptions. Under the Act the public citizen or group has the right to take legal action if they are denied access to public records and awards attorney fee's if they are proven right. This provides a mechanism to empower the public and it saves limited public resources.

The Attorney General is provided authority through the state constitution to enforce this act, as are the local District Attorneys. As a public service we have made available our Compliance Guide in its entirety and it can be reviewed by section online or printed for full review. Topics covered by this Act include the description of which records are covered, the assignment of a custodian of record, how confidential materials are addressed, as well as the impact of other laws. Also found here are the method to request records, the procedure of inspection, and the procedure for denied requests. While the enforcement of the act is described here if you have any questions you may contact the Civil Division of the Office of the Attorney General for further information at (505) 827-6070.
