Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 9 (commencing with Section 11120) of Chapter 1 of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, relating to public meetings, a diversion evaluation committee may convene in closed session to consider reports pertaining to any licentiate requesting or participating in a diversion program. A diversion evaluation committee shall only convene in closed session to the extent that it is necessary to protect the privacy of a licensee.
Notes
Allows a diversion evaluation committee to meet in closed session, despite the referenced public-meeting law, to consider reports concerning a dental-hygiene licensee who requests or participates in diversion. The committee may use closed session only to the extent necessary to protect the licensee’s privacy, rather than as a general exemption from public-meeting requirements.
