Actually, it is definitely not freedom of information. It is a different way of doing things. The Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Howlin, articulated it quite well about a more open style of Government, and I agree with him on that.

It is about how that process is rolled out and who is included as a matter of right in that process.
