Are they nuts? I understand creating a framework that allows you to deny flooding questions and charge for extremely heavy workloads a request requires. But the default position should be no fee release of information. The modernisation should be more proactive release and more timely release.
Under Labor's new FOI regime, an exemption will be made for requests for personal information, but otherwise a fee for FOI's will apply for politicians, journalists, and researchers. The fee is thought to be about $30 to $50 per request www.cyberdaily.au/security/125...
