Summary

Minister Gregory Nicholls urges caution on rushing freedom of information reforms, stressing that transparency must balance national security, privacy, and government efficiency. While supporting BARJAM’s push for accountability, he warns that unchecked openness can fuel misinformation, especially on social media. Nicholls champions a respectful, collaborative relationship between government and media, framing protections as essential for a resilient democracy—not barriers to openness.
