Senate Committee to look into the case for abolishing the OAIC

I don't think any reasonable supporter of open transparent and accountable government will find the case proven.

A phone call from Canberra from someone who should know:
  • A public hearing will be scheduled in Sydney on 10 November.
  • "There is no appetite among cross benchers to support the legislation."
Thank goodness.

The ALP, The Greens and those on the crossbenches can see recognise a furphy (improbable story) when they see one. 

(Update - Bill introduced in the Senate and debate adjourned until 25 November.)
