Let me restate that ever so slightly. The inquiry we did on the Canadian Newspaper Association's complaint about amber lighting found that the media was not the group of requesters worst affected by amber lighting; lawyers and parliamentarians were considerably ahead of them.
Amber lighting is defining a request as being sensitive, usually in order to prepare some kind of communications response when the information is put forward, or to specifically brief someone in the hierarchy, up to and including the minister, on the issue that's about to be disclosed. I have no problem with that activity. What I have a problem with is that any class of requester sees his timeliness rights under the statute violated by any such special process.
