NSW Opposition onto FOI reform

The changes sound like sensible steps in the right direction. There is plenty of time for the Government to match and beat the Opposition on this front, but as we reported last week the only Government speaker in parliamentary debate about the review bill said that everything on the FOI front is going swimmingly.
