department shall maintain records for the current and previous two years of:
results of its inspections; notifications to providers of deficiencies;
corrective action taken; complaints of violations of rules adopted under this
part; results of its investigations; resolution of complaints; and suspensions,
revocations, reinstatements, restorations, and reissuances of licenses,
temporary permits, and registrations issued under this part. Notwithstanding
any other law to the contrary, such records shall be available for inspection
in the manner set forth in section 92-51; provided that with respect to records
of family child care homes and group child care homes, sensitive personal
information or information provided to the department with the understanding
that it would not be publicly divulged shall be deleted or obliterated prior to
making the records available to the public. Nothing in this section shall
authorize the department to release the names of or any other identifying
information on complainants. The department may withhold information on a
complaint for which an investigation is being conducted for not more than ten
working days following the date of filing of the complaint; provided that if an
investigation relates to an alleged criminal offense, no information shall be
released until the investigation has been completed and the director has
determined that no legal proceeding will be jeopardized by its release. [L
