A joint state legislative committee has been discussing whether state
agencies should prohibit the practice.

State Sen. Mike Bell, R-Riceville, the Senate chairman of the Joint
Government Operations Committee, asked the Comptroller’s Office, the
Tennessee Department of Transportation and the Tennessee Wildlife Resources
Agency to review their policies to allow citizens to use technology, like
their cell phone, to take photos of public records, according to a recent
e-mail from the Tennessee Coalition on Open Government.

All three of the agencies’ new public records policies prohibit citizens
from making copies of records with personal equipment.
