Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
2:30 pm
Mary Henry (Independent)
In the Long Title, it has been suggested that we can bring forward amendments to the Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill. This entire Bill is amending the original Act. The commissioner, for whom I have great admiration, suggests references to members of the public should be changed to "persons". This is obviously an important step he wants us to take. What is the view of the Department of Finance on this?
