P-470
On May 10, 1993, the undersigned was appointed Inquiry Officer and received a delegation of the power and duty to conduct inquiries and to make orders under the provincial Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act and the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
BACKGROUND:
The Ministry of Housing (the Ministry) received a request under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act) for access to a report dated May 13, 1991 prepared by a named individual in response to a 1991 Management Review of the Rent Review Hearings Board (the Board). The Ministry provided partial access to the record. Access was denied to portions of pages 17, 18, 19 and 20 pursuant to sections 21(1), 21(2)(g) and (i), and 21(3)(d) and (g) of the Act. The requester appealed the Ministry's decision to deny access to the information on pages 19 and 20 of the record. Section 21(3)(d) was not claimed by the Ministry to apply to either of these pages.
Attempts to further mediate the appeal were unsuccessful and notice that an inquiry was being conducted to review the decision of the Ministry was forwarded to the appellant and the Ministry. Written representations were received from both parties.
