PHILLIPS, Chief Justice,
concurring.
I concur with Judge Shannon’s holding that the names involved should be disclosed under the Open Records Act and his refusal to use a balancing test in this case. However, I would be careful to point out that we are not limited to a common law tort recognized by judicial decision only but that § 3(a)2, includes any of the invasions of privacy set out in 3(a)l, i.e., “information deemed confidential by law, either constitutional, statutory or by judicial decision.” Tex.Rev.Civil Stat.Ann. art. 6252-17a (Supp.1982).
