Why?

The great question!  Well, actually, two questions:  “Why Transparency Saint Helena?" and “Why this blog?”

The second is the quicker one to answer: Transparency Saint Helena has a Facebook page, but not everybody uses Facebook.  This blog is visible to anyone with Internet access.  It will contain the same material, so you don’t need to read both.

Now for the first question: “Why Transparency Saint Helena?"

Transparency Saint Helena argues for improved access to the way government takes decisions. In short, the creation of a Freedom of Information Ordinance for St. Helena.

The arguments for this will become apparent in the postings that will follow.

Comments are welcome.  They will be moderated to prevent spam but otherwise all opinions will be published, whether supportive or not.  That’s Transparency in action.
