PC Leader Tony Wakeham and NDP Leader John Dinn are concerned over the lack of transparency and failure to provide all caucus leaders with a complete roster of qualified candidates as required by law.
Some members of the opposition are voicing concerns over the process being used to appoint a new Information and Privacy Commissioner (IPC). On November 5th Government House Leader John Hogan introduced a motion to the order paper proposing the appointment of a specific person as the Information and Privacy Commissioner, effective November 25th. This despite objections from PC Leader Tony Wakeham and NDP Leader John Dinn over the lack of transparency and failure to provide all caucus leaders with a complete roster of qualified candidates as required by law. Wakeham says “By failing to consult with party leaders, the government has shown a blatant lack of transparency and disregard for the collaborative approach recommended by those reviews. Our caucus cannot support this motion and will debate it in the House until a full list of qualified candidates, along with the rationale for the selection, is provided.”
