The Ministry of Correctional Services (the Ministry) received a request under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act) for access to a copy of the requester's personal and medical files from four named correctional centres.
The record which the Ministry identified as being responsive to the request consisted of 683 pages. The Ministry granted access to certain parts of the record and denied access to others, either in whole or in part, pursuant to sections 14(1)(b) and (h), 14(2)(d) and 49(b) and (e) of the Act. The requester appealed the Ministry's decision to deny access to pages 24, 38, 43,122 and 173 and part of pages 14, 176 and 177.
During mediation of the appeal, the Ministry issued a revised decision granting access to pages 38 and 43. The Ministry also claimed sections 14(1)(a), (c) and (e) as additional exemptions.
The severed information from page 14 of the record does not relate to the appellant, and is not responsive to his request. All of the information on this page that relates to the appellant has been disclosed to him. The remaining information falls outside the scope of this appeal, and will not be dealt with in this order.
The parts of the record that remain at issue are pages 24, 122 and 173 in their entirety, and parts of pages 176 and 177.
Further mediation was not successful and notice that an inquiry was being conducted to review the Ministry's decision was sent to the appellant and the Ministry. Written representations were received from the Ministry only.
The pages of the record for which the Ministry claimed Section 49(b) of the Act are no longer at issue; therefore this section will not be considered in this order.
