Not completely surprising. If putting the documents in the HoC Library makes them public (for instance, in the Canadian context, accessible by the public through Access To Information laws), then the NDA between the negotiating parties would obviously preclude putting the document(s) there. Is there another forum which the MPs could see it in, which does not make the document public?
