I don't think there's anything like that in Australia. Possibly because our state and federal governments couldn't launch it with a straight face given their level of secrecy. (Link: Report into Commonwealth secrecy laws)

Just the thought of a report on secrecy laws makes me laugh.

Yeah. I'm expecting that the government will find a way to bury it and my head with explode from the irony. Sometimes it's like living in an episode of 'Yes Minister' here.

This is the first I've ever heard of Sunshine Week. The description makes it sound like Гласность (Glasnost).

Anyway, Happy Freedom of Information Day! May all of our federal agencies publicly disclose their ... um ... information ...?

Happy Freedom of Information Day to you, too!

Heh. I see your point about Glasnost.

Me too. Now I'm going to nap next to a window.

I'll celebrate it by going outside - IN THE DAYTIME! :O

 

*I hate sunlight but Sunshine Week sounds great... too bad they won't disclose anything of importance.*
