'Smith tables secret list to parliament'
May 14, 2009 - 7:19AM Foreign Minister Stephen Smith has accidentally tabled a secret list of Australia's bilateral treaty negotiations to parliament.
The comprehensive schedule of current negotiations with foreign governments was tabled with Mr Smith's authority in both houses of federal parliament on Wednesday.
The document reveals confidential discussions for a new defence cooperation agreement between Australia and Indonesia and sensitive proposals to significantly boost Australia's uranium exports to China.
Mr Smith's office admitted that the schedule had been tabled "in error".
"The Minister accepts responsibility for the error," his spokesman told The Canberra Times.
A note on the document's cover page explicitly states it should not be tabled in parliament or in any way placed on the public record.
Mr Smith's office said that the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade was "in the process of advising each of the relevant countries that the document was released in error".
