Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2003: Second Stage (Resumed).
2:30 pm
Kathleen O'Meara (Labour)
I thank the Acting Chairman. It was my great privilege to work with the then Minister of State, Eithne Fitzgerald, in formulating the principal legislation. I saw the work involved and saw at close quarters its objective and aim. This objective is now being rolled back fundamentally and blatantly in such an abusive fashion by this effectively dictatorial Government.
