In opposition, Tony Abbott vowed a government led by him would be open and transparent. He told the Australian public in his Real Solutions booklet he would "restore accountability and improve transparency measures to be more accountable to you".

Last month, the Prime Minister told the party faithful "from Menzies to Fraser to Howard and to the current government, the Liberal Party has been the party that gives more freedom".

In reality what we are seeing from this government is the opposite, amounting to yet another broken promise.

When it comes to accountability and transparency the Freedom of Information Act is a powerful tool for the public. But it is under attack. The Abbott government has a bill before the Parliament that seeks to undermine and weaken the act.
