Section 350.01(9), F.S.
Those portions of a hearing conducted by the Public Service Commission wherein proprietary confidential business information that is confidential or exempt from disclosure pursuant to cited statutes, is discussed are exempt from s. 286.011. No exempt portion may be made off the record and all exempt portions shall be recorded and transcribed. The recordings and transcripts are confidential unless a court finds that the hearing was not restricted to the discussion of proprietary confidential information, in which case only that portion which reveals nonexempt information may be disclosed to a third party.
