mr. richmond? >> yes, with the recognition that even within that statement, within the states, there are considerable debates going on right now about how that law does apply. >> ms. reese, do you want to answer? >> we need to take a close look at the consequences of these additional regulations on charters. but by and large, my reaction is yes. they should be able to make this information available. our model law encourages states to have open meeting laws in place for charter school boards to conduct their meetings in public, for instance. >> mr. scott, your time has expired. >> thank you, madam chair. >> mr. grossman, you are recognized for five minutes. >> sure. you can give me the dr. west question. it may be someone else wants to weigh in on this as well. it seems to me, when i tour scoreless -- schools, or hear anecdotes about good or bad schools, some of this is the difference which you get the most out of your employees. and if you have an employee who is not cutting it, you let them go. i

mr. richmond? >> i need to think about the question tquestion to see how tt state statutes treat this particular question. >> some do and some don't. the question is whether all public schools or public monies should be subject to open records laws like the freedom of information. does anybody want to answer? >> i feel everybody should be held to the same standard. public schools with public dollars and charter schools to charter dollars, they should be a level playing field. >> transparency and our government is very important. the reason i hesitate to offer an absolute yes is because it is not an issue i've looked at closely. sometimes there are unintended consequences for disabled in some cases they've made it impossible for charter school boards that are not comprised of the geographical areas to comply with the exceptions are needed to be carved out and so i just would not want to offer an absolute yes without giving more studies. >> yes with the recognition that even within that statement in
