I'm not the only Aussie with an FOI interest voyaging forth-according to this post by Alasdair Roberts he and Australian Information Commissioner John McMillan spoke at a forum in Beijing earlier this week entitled "Does Access to Information Really Make Governments More Transparent." Hopefully the short answer was "yes" but I'm sure there is an interested audience beyond Beijing. Professor McMillan's speech or other details of the discussion are yet to appear on the OAIC website.
I'll be back in the middle of next week.
