Policy transparency rationale: Government decides to release all primary-education information vs. prior public inaccessibility — determine the correct causal direction.

Given data

• I: Government will make all information on primary education available to the public.
• II: Earlier, the public did not have access to this information.

Concept/Approach

• Policy changes typically address identified gaps; the past inaccessibility (II) motivates the new transparency decision (I).

Step-by-Step reasoning
1) Lack of public access (II) → identified problem.2) Government responds with full release policy (I).3) Therefore (II) causes (I).

Verification/Alternative

• (I) causing (II) would mean the decision created past inaccessibility, which contradicts the timeline.

Common pitfalls

• Ignoring temporal order embedded in policy responses.

Final Answer
Statement II is the cause and statement I is its effect.
