I’m missing context — which law or jurisdiction is this question about (federal APA/FOIA, a state “sunshine” law, a class/test question)? The correct answer depends on that.
Briefly, under the federal Administrative Procedure Act agencies must publish substantive rules of general applicability in the Federal Register and generally may not make them effective until 30 days after publication (5 U.S.C. §553). Separately, FOIA (5 U.S.C. §552) requires agencies to make many categories of records available for public inspection. So none of the options you gave (no obligation / Congress order / 90 days / 50 years) exactly matches the federal rule.
If you tell me the source or jurisdiction of the question, I’ll pick the right option or explain which of your choices is closest.
