The significance of official documents is a function of the disclosure consensus agreed upon by the involved parties. Even the government documents are bounded by confidentiality clauses if the matter is of national importance and pertains to security. Most of the defense, cross border treaties are kept under wraps. Being governmental doesn't imply being public.

What are sunshine laws?

Sunshine laws mandate transparency in government dealings, e.g. Open Meetings laws and requirement of full disclosure, in order to prevent corruption. Instances in which complete openness is impossible (such as Intelligence) still must be carefully recorded. == Generally speaking, Sunshine laws are laws that (1) require government bodies to conduct their business at meetings open to the public and/or (2) give the public the right to obtain access to government documents. However, Sunshine laws usually contain exceptions to both of these requirements. The exceptions allow government (1) to exclude the public from meetings at which certain types of items are discussed and/or decided and (2) to keep certain types of records or documents confidential. The provisions in the Sunshine Laws of each state differ.
