of a democratic society that the public business be performed in an
open and public manner and that the citizens of this state be fully
aware of and able to observe the performance of public officials and
attend and listen to the deliberations and decisions that go into the
making of public policy. The people must be able to remain informed
if they are to retain control over those who are their public servants. It
is the only climate under which the commonwealth will prosper and
enable the governmental process to operate for the benefit of those
who created it.
