(a) Notwithstanding AS 47.10.090 and 47.10.093, a parent or legal guardian of a child subject to a proceeding under AS 47.10.005 - 47.10.142 may disclose confidential or privileged information about the child or the child's family, including information that has been lawfully obtained from agency or court files, to the governor, the lieutenant governor, a legislator, the ombudsman appointed under AS 24.55, the attorney general, and the commissioners of health and social services, administration, or public safety, or an employee of these persons, for review or use in their official capacities. The department shall disclose additional confidential or privileged information and make copies of documents available for inspection about the child or the child's family to these state officials or employees for review or use in their official capacities upon request of the official or employee and submission of satisfactory evidence that a parent or legal guardian of the child has requested the state official's assistance in the case as part of the official's duties. A person to whom disclosure is made under this section may not disclose confidential or privileged information about the child or the child's family to a person not authorized to receive it.

(b) The disclosure right under (a) of this section is in addition to, and not in derogation of, the rights of a parent or legal guardian of a minor.
