This citation is used to support the principle that a public agency could properly deny a request for records stored in a database if those records were requested for a commercial purpose or if the requester certified a dual purpose, one of which was commercial. However, it is noted that the Public Access to Governmental Databases Act, which contained this principle, was incorporated into the Open Records Act and the "commercial purpose" exception was eliminated, making this citation no longer applicable under the new amendments.
