"THE LORD Chancellor will mount a strong attack today on the “culture of secrecy” in Whitehall as he announces that up to 200 laws are to be repealed to let more information be released. Lord Falconer of Thoroton will say that since the Freedom of Information Act was introduced on January 1, the Government has disclosed 10,000 pieces of information."
