Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill

Does the right hon. Gentleman also agree with the comments by the hon. Member for North Devon in Committee when he said"““Indeed, we have a comprehensive publication scheme, which puts into the public domain exactly what MPs’ expenses are for, the rules that pertain to those expenses and how much each Member has claimed against each expense each year…I believe that we have got the balance about right””?""––[Official Report, Freedom of Information (Amendment) Public Bill Committee, 7 February 2007; c. 16.]"
