Book Description
Pursuant to K.S.A. 75-4319(b)(4), a public body may recess into executive session to discuss confidential financial data or trade secrets. The open meetings act is to be interpreted broadly to give effect to the legislative intent that meetings of public bodies be accessible to the public; exceptions to the act must be construed narrowly. Thus, public bodies must take care to recess into executive session on the basis of K.S.A. 75-4319(b)(4) only when the topic of conversation clearly involves c̲o̲n̲f̲i̲d̲e̲n̲t̲i̲a̲l̲ financial data, or "trade secrets" as that term has been defined by Kansas courts. Cited herein: K.S.A. 60-3320; 75-4317; K.S.A. 1987 Supp. 75-4318; K.S.A. 75-4319, as amended by L. 1988, ch. 315, section 4.

Book Description
While there is no express provision in the Kansas Constitution that prohibits the legislature from appointing its members to administrative boards or commissions, the separation of powers doctrine prohibits the legislature from usurping the powers of another governmental branch. In view of the case law history of this doctrine and the facts with which we have been presented, we cannot conclusively say that legislative membership on the emergency medical services board is unconstitutional under the separation of powers doctrine. Cited herein: K.S.A. 65-4316; 74-2127; Kan. Const., Art. 2, section 14; 1988 House Bill No. 2639.
