I welcome Ms O'Reilly. I ask her to explain the last paragraph on page 1 of her presentation more slowly because it is complicated. Section 32 is a very important provision because it subordinates the access provisions to the FOI Act to all non-disclosure provisions in other statute, apart from those included in the Third Schedule to the FOI Act. I ask her to break that down in steps for me. Ms O'Reilly will probably appreciate that the majority of people do not know what is in the Third Schedule to the FOI Act. She might discuss those points. The presentation refers to non-disclosure provisions in the Third Schedule and that Departments recommend the non-disclosure provisions which should be included in the Third Schedule.
