Tully rules against South Shore Regional School Board in bid to not reveal settlement amount

Information and Privacy Commissioner Catherine Tully has ruled against the South Shore Regional School Board regarding a settlement.  The applicant wanted to know the amount of money paid to a former employee to settle legal disputes, but the school board said it was an unreasonable invasion of privacy.  Tully finds the settlement was remuneration of a public body employee, and disclosure isn’t unreasonable.

President-elect Donald Trump

Riding a wave of anger against the Washington establishment, Donald Trump has won the presidency of the United States of America.

Trump went in front of his supporters early this morning to say Hillary Clinton had called to concede defeat. He claimed victory saying it’s time for Americans to come together as one united people and that he would be president for all Americans.

Trump’s victory and the Republicans’ continued control of Congress threaten many of President Barack Obama’s major achievements. Trump has vowed to Obama’s health care law and revoke the nuclear agreement with Iran.
