Critical Analysis — What This Bill Actually Does
Established the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians — but with significant limitations. The PM can redact information from the committee, and the government controls what the committee can investigate. Presented as transparency and accountability, but structured to maintain executive control over security oversight.
