The Right2 Know Campaign has welcomed the ruling by the High Court in Johannesburg regarding national key points.
The
court ruled today that about 200 national keypoints need to be made public
within 30 days.
Right2
Know last month in a statement said basic transparency is an important step in
countering the uncontrolled secrecy and potential abuse of South Africa’s
‘national security’ policies.
Right2
Know’s Murray Hunter said said the Act is being abused by government.
Hunter
said to undermine the public’s right to know and to shield certain institutions
from public criticism.
“This
is not only government institutions but apparently many institutions in the
private sector as well Hunter added.
