Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
2:30 pm
Derek McDowell (Labour)
The Minister of State has basically told me he cannot give me the assurance that Senator Mansergh gave me – that the tax strategy group papers would be included as part of the definition of factual information. Will the Minister of State tell me what in God's name "statistical or empirical information, together with any analysis thereof" is intended to cover? The Minister of State has spoken about clarifying the current situation. Perhaps he will tell us what sort of information is intended to be comprised in the definition.
