Subject: RE: BS: UK Justice Minister and Nigerian scam From: DMcG Date: 25 Feb 09 - 04:07 AM Jack Straw never seemed to be in favour of a Freedom of Information Act that actually did the job. It's worth comparing what we ended up with compared to the original proposals of the White Paper. It could almost define the term 'back-pedal'. It is also worth noting that the main objections Jack Straw presented had nothing to do with the decision to go to war as such, but everything to do with keeping all cabinet minutes secret as a matter of principle. That makes it even more likely all such minutes will remain hidden and opens the door way to make even for ministerial information protected against the act. |
