In response to queries posed at the weekly post-Cabinet meeting media briefing, he clarified that while the Government is committed to transparency, certain clauses within the MoU require bilateral consensus before public disclosure.
"On some contents, we need mutual agreement to disclose the information," he said, adding that the details of these agreements will be released in due course, similar to the Karainagar boat yard agreement.
