On January 5, 1990, the undersigned was appointed Assistant Commissioner and received a delegation of the power to conduct inquiries and make Orders under the Act.
On January 20, 1989, you wrote to the institution requesting access to:
a list of the salary rates of those employees on staff on March 31, 1988, where the annual rate is in excess of $50,000.00; including the annual rates for employees who are employed under flexible working arrangements.
On March 17, 1989, the institution responded to your request by granting access to part of the information you had requested. Specific salaries and job classifications were disclosed, but the names and social insurance numbers of the individuals receiving the salaries were withheld under the provisions of section 21 of the Act.
On April 4, 1989, you wrote to this office appealing the institution's decision. Notice of the appeal was given to the institution on April 19, 1989.
