I thank the Minister for her comments. I take it from the reference to "education or training facilities" in section 7 that the numbers of computers and laboratories and items of equipment used, sports fields, libraries and books will not be covered by a refusal of access to certain information. Perhaps it might be considered that if we need facilities, it would be better for us to have the information available. It might even help the Minister in her dealings with the Minister for Finance. The subsection seems to be at odds with what the Minister was saying, since it conceals the lack of facilities under the heading of refusal of access to certain information.
