I find with all due respect that is an easy cop-out because the fact that we award them the right doesn't mean they will necessarily exercise it. It is a fundamental right or a quasi-judicial right that the government seems so strong to state on every tribune.... The argument of saying their privacy.... If they don't want to exercise it, they won't. To tell them that they have this right.... What the government is saying is that you won't get the right if you don't ask for it. I find this utterly sad and maybe just re-think. It's nothing nasty. It doesn't give them more rights. It just states a fact.
