You might be interested in this assessment of the Federal Freedom of Information Reform proposals by Ken Parish,writing for Club Troppo. Ken gives the package a credit grade, and thinks I have been a little unfair. I'll leave it to you, dear reader.
Ken Parish is a Darwin-based lawyer and former Labor member of the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly. He now teaches (mostly public law subjects) at Charles Darwin University, where he founded Australia's first fully online external law degree program. Ken is no longer associated with any political party, describing himself as a "committed sceptic."
