P0114 The public's overwhelming interest in making sure that the Department of Social Services does not abuse its discretion in granting exemptions that allow individuals with criminal convictions to be employed at licensed child care centers is greater than the privacy rights of licensees with public records of criminal convictions or the expense of $43,000 that would be involved in compiling information about them, so the Public Records Act requires full disclosure of all persons with criminal convictions who have received exemptions since 1995 allowing them to work in licensed day care facilities, and a list of all licensed day care facilities with an owner, operator, employee or other person living at the facility who has received such an exemption.CitationCBS v SUPERIOR COURT (Day-Care Convictions) 91 CA4 892 [See: GovC 6250 et seq; CBS v Block 42 C3 646; City of San Jose v Superior Court 74 CA4 1008]
