N.S. information commissioner says government bill threatens right to access records - Halifax | Globalnews.ca
68% Informative
Nova Scotia’s freedom of information commissioner is calling on the government to withdraw legislation.
Tricia Ralph , who ends her term of office this week , said measures in an omnibus bill tabled by the Progressive Conservatives threaten the rights of citizens to access information.
Ralph took issue with amendments that allow departments to refuse access requests on the basis they’re “trivial, frivolous or vexatious”.
Several news organizations have been boycotting formal news conferences.
The government says the change is being made to improve access for journalists who can't make it to the legislature.
The Canadian Press says the plan is designed to force journalists into deciding whether to cover the affairs of the legislature or trek off-site.
