There are some legitimate criticisms of the Financial Transparency Act. Some of the required reporting is pretty onerous and much more strict than that which is required for other levels of government. It's also not clear that it will provide any tangible benefit and might just generate a bunch more red tape.
That's not to say that there shouldn't be accountability and transparency, but as usual the Conservative government missed the mark.
