MO-1655

File #  MA-020263-1
Institution/HIC  Ottawa Police Services Board
Summary

An individual made a request to the Ottawa Police Services Board (the Police) for a correction of his personal information pursuant to the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act). The requester (now the appellant) asked the Police to correct his personal information contained in an identified report by removing certain information. The appellant also asked the Police to contact any individuals to whom the identified information had been disclosed, and to notify them of the correction.

The appellant’s request arises out of a complaint he made to the Police regarding allegations that his mail was being stolen. The record at issue is a report prepared by the Police during the course of investigating the appellant’s allegations. The appellant takes issue with a portion of the report containing a statement made by a named postal inspector, speaking on behalf of Canada Post, to the Police. The postal inspector states that Canada Post has no record of any complaints from the appellant or any other residents in the appellant’s postal code area.
