Institution/HIC  Ministry of the Attorney General
Summary

The Ministry of the Attorney General (the Ministry) received a request for correction of personal information relating to the requester contained in a record of the Police Complaints Commissioner.

Following inquiries from the Ministry, the requester clarified the request as follows:

I am requesting that Mr. Lewis change his decision as stated in his letter dated November 23, 1992:

Considering all the available evidence, I do not believe that it is necessary in the public interest to order a hearing before a Board of Inquiry in this case. No further action is warranted and our file is now closed.

In its decision letter, the Ministry refused the request for correction, stating "... the information is not your personal information ...". The requester appealed this decision to the Commissioner's office.

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. Representations were received from the appellant and the Ministry.

The record which is the subject of the correction request is an extract from a two-page decision of the Police Complaints Commissioner dated November 23, 1992, which is quoted above.
