The Liberal government has agreed to give the Foreign Interference Commission access to key cabinet documents and to publicly disclose document summaries.

In an Oct. 7 press release, Commissioner Marie-Josée Hogue said that after extensive discussions, the government agreed to grant the commission access to four cabinet memorandums. The documents will be entered into evidence during the inquiry’s latest round of hearings.
