The Freedom of Information Act (North Carolina Public Records Law, G.S. §132-1.) is a North Carolina statute that provides the public with the right to access government documents and records. The law provides that a person can ask a public body for a copy of its records on a specific subject and the public body must provide those records, unless there is an exemption in the statute that protects those records from disclosure (for example: records containing information concerning trade secrets or personal privacy).
There is no charge for a copy of the first 25 pages of any documents requested; 10 cents per page thereafter. For color copies, abnormal size copies, or copies of documents in electronic form, an additional charge may apply.
