This is a list of items we wish to see implemented. It is not complete, and will be added to.
1) Return the Freedom of Information Act to its position pre the 2003 amendments. Do not charge the public to access information we already pay to collect and store.
2) Extend the Act to cover more institutions and organisations, especially An Garda Siochana.
3) The placing of all expenses online as soon as practically possible after the incurring of those expenses. This could be easily done given the IT system in use already. “The backend is the frontend.” This is not just politician expenses, but all expenses.
4) The digitisation of far more Government data than is currently available. This might include simple machine readable feeds. This helps with a thing called transparency.
