P-939
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 an investigation report in the form of a letter dated April 15, 1992 from the Manager of Compliance in the Commissioner's office to the Minister of Correctional Services regarding a privacy complaint made under the Act against an employee of the Ministry.
The Ministry located the responsive record and granted access to it in part, severing references contained in the letter to the gender of the complainant and the office location of the Area Manager who was the subject of the complaint, claiming the following exemption in the Act:
invasion of privacy - section 21(1).
The requester appealed the Ministry's decision to deny access to the name of the office. A Notice of Inquiry was provided to the Ministry and the appellant. Representations were received from both parties.
