Releasing the potential of freedom of information - Making the
transition from Version 1.0 to Version 2.0


What:           The Information Commissioner of Canada, M. Robert Marleau,
                invites you to meet M. Rick Snell, Senior Lecturer in
Law at the
                University of Tasmania, Australia

     Freedom of information needs to be aligned with its surrounding
environments. Mr. Snell will talk about the emergence of a new generation of
access to information legislation that is adapted to a digital environment.
This is a great opportunity to hear about the recent work done in Australia

information law.
