P-460
The Ministry of Correctional Services (now the Ministry of the Solicitor General and Correctional Services) (the Ministry) received a request under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act) for access to the requester's institution file from the Whitby Jail. The Ministry granted access to most of the records but denied access to some records, either entirely or in part, pursuant to sections 49(b), 14(1)(h) and 14(2)(d) of the Act. The requester appealed the Ministry's denial of access.
Mediation resulted in a narrowing of the number of records at issue in the appeal, the elimination of section 49(b) as an issue, and the additional application of section 14(1)(e) of the Act. A complete settlement was not effected 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 both parties.
The records at issue are pages 486, 510 and 561. The Ministry has denied access to these three records under section 49(a) pursuant to sections 14(1)(e), 14(1)(h) and 14(2)(d) of the Act.
