Deputy demands answers to proposed legislation
« on: January 28, 2008, 10:55:34 PM »
It was lodged almost three years ago and today Deputy Roy Le Herissier is demanding answers to his proposed legislation.

The Freedom of Information Law was first brought to the states committee in April 2005, but they still haven't made a final decision.

Today Roy Le Herissier is meeting with the chairman of Privileges and Procedures, where he intends to get the committee's final outcome.

If approved, the law will replace the existing code of practise which oversees public access to information. It would give us more freedom to data such as states costings.

Deputy Le Herrisier said: "They've had two years to revise the law and they've come round in a big circle back to the code and unfortunately I feel there's a bit of a ganging up against the ordinary members which I'm not happy about at all.

"PPC did have the legacy of a very good law, maybe an overcomplicated law and I thought they were going to re-define that law, maybe simplify it.

"But it would be a law because it would make it a right and I think that is very important under a ministerial system were people feel an awful lot of powers been given to that side but not to the counter balancing side."

"They really must be hiding something!"

You know I was asked to actually study Roy's achievements over the past 3 years, and like Paul Le Claire, there is nothing there.

It is funny how they all seem to wake up at their appraisals AKA election time.

These elections coming up are more wide open than people believe.

Talking of Roy, he attacked websites tonight.

I don't mind him supporting Time 4 Change now if he thinks he can help.

I just got that impression but after meeting with T4C last night there are no longer going to be any slanging matches.  I reckon we should all arrange to meet up at the end of the month in the pub again cause I like getting pissed ??? :P

Give a time and a place and I'll see, it would be good to put faces to names
You can't get good chinese takeout in China and cuban cigars are rationed in Cuba. That's all you need to know about communism

I have met a few people that come on here.  People do not have to identify themselves if they don't want to.  Just organise a meet up in a local boozer maybe next weekend?  Can we have a poll?
