"The disclosure of information that bears on the public duties of public employees and officials shall not be considered an invasion of personal privacy. 5 ILCS 140/7(1)(c)."

"Further, the Illinois Constitution provides that '[r]eports and records of the obligation, receipt and use of public funds of the State, units of local government and school districts are public records available for inspection by the public according to law.' Ill. Const. 1970, Art. VII, sec. 1(c)."
