Winston MurrayThe Office of the President (OP) says that Freedom of Information legislation has never been rejected by the PPP/C government and it has responded to commitments in its elections manifestos and to public sentiment by making government information freely available “like never before.”

OP says too that “ultimately legislation on Freedom of Information will be enacted, recognizing that it is but only one aspect of access to information.”
