The importance of an informed public in the democratic role has been emphasized by arguments over peoples rights concerning access to government documents The Canadian Bar Association has been taking an in terest on behalf of Canadians generally with study by Murray Rankin professor of law at the University of Victoria It was the first official response to the govern ment paper recently issued by Secretary of State John Roberts former MP for neighboring YorkSimcoe riding The Rankin study says that the British and American experience showw that giving the final decision on disclosure of documents to cabinet minister would make sham of access to government information This is made in support of the argument that legisla tion allowing more freedom of information should pro vide for full independent court reviews of government rulings The contention was counter to government policy paper issued in June which said judicial officer cannot be properly made aware of all facts leading to decision to withhold document It also proposed wide range of exceptions under which the government could refuse to release informa tion and would allow documents to be withheld at the discretion of cabinet minister Itiinkin says it appears minister could dcfcnd non disclosure with arguments so insubstantial that he could ncvcr hopc to persuade an independent person of their worth It is acknowledged there are documents dealing with national dcfcncc and foreign policy which might not be in thc gcncrzil intcrcst of the country to makc public Ihcrc also is nccd for government powers to hold back facts dciiling with ccrtziin ncgotiations until it is in the public intcrcst to ltltilSt thcm Whilc othcr similar exceptions might bc dcfcndcd thc gcncrzil principlc of the publics right to

splits big and small At the present time for example the Con servatives or at least section of them are upset over an appointmentthe naming of defeated cabinet minister lohn Smith to the Workmens Compensation Board The section made up of backbenchers mostly veterans is not bothered by ethics that the Smith appointment was political one Nothing could concern them less No what irks them is where the ap pointment went They feel that the government takes care of former ministers and does an excellent job But that in turn it does nothing to speak of for former private members many of whom need to be fixed up much morc And they are right in that there are num ber of former back bcnchcrs around who are in poor straits They have some pcnsron But there has to be very long service before this rcally amoun ts to much And aside from this they are struggling And it is true that the government of today seemingly doesnt even know they exist GREATER REVOLT Probably the most interesting conflict
