Thank you.
Madam Maynard, on June 15, the Office of the Information Commissioner released its 2021 annual report, which documented, to quote your words, “a culture of complacency” within the federal government. I'm going to quote from that:
This culture of complacency is characterized by the view that responding to access requests is a distraction from employees' day jobs, rather than what it actually is: a core part of their responsibility as public servants—to facilitate transparency in government operations.
Madam Maynard, is it your view that this is a fair characterization of the attitude towards disclosure in the current government?
