Given how crucial to exposing government misconduct FOI requests are in the UK, I imagine this is a path you very much don't want to go down.
I first thought this was talking about the UK government, as I wouldn't put it past them to try and push something like this through. I'm both sad and relieved it's our Australian cousins going through it instead.
