Hi Caroline,

Thank you for your inquiry.

The Secretary of State's Corporation Division is not a licensing agency, and our role is ministerial. The business registry is merely a means by which a company fulfills the requirements of the specific Oregon revised statute by which it's activities are governed.

All of the public record which is created by our Office during the registration process is already available online. We do not record or keep records of any of the items you mention in your numbered paragraphs. Neither do we hold meetings of a regulatory or other nature with the companies which are required to register themselves on the business registry.

Here is a link to the online business registry, which is the index of the public record. All of the public record can be found by utilizing the search tool on this page. Documents related to the filings submitted by a business can be found by scrolling to the bottom of the search results page, and clicking on the links to the left of the filings listed.
Best Regards,

Kevin Gregg
Oregon Corporation Division
