A.      Except as provided in A.R.S. § 32-3282, the following records are confidential and not open to public inspection:

1.        Minutes of executive session;

2.        Records classified as confidential by other laws, rules, or regulations;

3.        College or university transcripts, licensure examination scores, medical or mental health information, and profes- sional references of applicants except that the individual who is the subject of the information may view or copy the records or authorize release of these records to a third party.

When the Board determines that the reason justifying the confiden- tiality of the records no longer exists, the record shall be made available for public inspection and copying; and

5.        All investigative materials regarding any pending or resolved complaint.
