May be the question was confusing. Let me be more clear.
I don't want to restrict who can see the members of the group in GAL.
I don't want to hide it from the GAL.
I don't want to resrtrict who can send messages to the group.
I have a mail enabled group Group1, I have two users user1 and user2.
I want user1 to see group1 in the GAL.
I DON'T want user2 to see group1 in the GAL.
I hope my question is clear now.

thanks for your help,
Rob
