Non-Disclosure Provisions Under the Freedom of Information Act: Discussion with Information Commissioner
1:15 pm
Stephen Donnelly (Wicklow, Independent) | Oireachtas source
The Department has the information but it refuses to release it because, apparently, information about how much covered banks were holding in deposits of up to €100,000 five years ago is commercially sensitive. That is an example of what I am dealing with as a parliamentarian. I am interested in hearing her view about the type of information relating to the NAMA and the credit institutions scheme that should be covered by FOI but is not currently covered and the recommendation in her report.
