Subject: Two Steps Forward, One Step Backwards: The Access to Information
Campaign in Argentina
freedominfo.org Update, June 27, 2006
Two Steps Forward, One Step Backwards:
The Access to Information Campaign in Argentina
http://www.freedominfo.org
June 27, 2006 - Which is preferable, a severely flawed national access to
information law, or no law at all? According to a new report published today
on freedominfo.org, Argentina had the "luxury" of debating that unfortunate
question until November 30, 2005, when the Argentine access to information
bill lost parliamentary status, sending the campaign one humongous step
backwards.
The report, by two Buenos Aires-based FOI advocates, was published today at
http://www.freedominfo.org .
