Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2003: Committee Stage.

 

This gives a clear indication of what the Government is trying to do – to pull a cloak of secrecy over things. How does it cover what the Department of Finance is doing? It shows it on a different website, hoping somebody will not see it. It is absolutely outrageous. If that is the view of the Department, it reflects very badly on it. The Department is incompetent to deal with this issue if this is the kind of reply we get. I do not accept that kind of outrageous rubbish. It is disrespectful and unacceptable. The Cathaoirleach should rule out the Minister of State's comment.
