Confidentiality of all complaints, investigatory reports and information, exceptions
Records about people who apply for or hold a license to work with controlled substances are kept private. They can only be shared if the person agrees in writing, or with certain government or law enforcement agencies. But some basic information is public — like a person's name, address, whether they are registered, and any final discipline taken against them. Also, if an investigation is still going on, the person being investigated cannot see those records yet.
