The rough draft of a conference paper for the Law and Parliament Conference in Ottawa, Canada, November 2006.
I, Burocrat
According to the Three Laws a public administrator must:
1. not harm a minister, or, through inaction, allow a minister to come to harm.
2. obey the orders of a minister except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. protect its own existence, as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
