The records of any state agency loss control committee addressing any pending or reasonably predictable claim are exempt from section 44-04-18 and are not open records under section 6 of article XI of the Constitution of North Dakota unless the director of the office of management and budget determines disclosure will not prejudice any pending or reasonably predictable claim and the meetings of any loss control committee of a governing body are not public meetings subject to section 44-04-19 and section 5 of article XI of the Constitution of North Dakota. The records and communications at meetings of the committee regarding any pending or reasonably predictable claim are privileged and are not subject to subpoena or discovery or introduction into evidence in any civil action. The records of the committee include all information, data, reports, or records created by or made available to the committee. Any information, data, report, or record otherwise available from original sources is not confidential or immune from discovery or use in any civil action merely because it was presented or considered during the proceedings of the committee. A person who testified before the committee or who is a member of the committee may testify as to matters within that person's knowledge but may not be asked about the records of, the testimony before, or the discussions of the committee. This section does not relieve any person of any liability incurred as a result of actions reviewed by the committee.
