The Ottawa Police Force (the Police) received a request under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act) for all information relating to the requester.
The Police determined that the disclosure of some of the records which were responsive to the request "might affect the interests of two third parties". In accordance with section 21(1)(b) of the Act, the Police notified two individuals of the request, and solicited their views as to whether the records should be disclosed.
After receipt of representations from the two individuals, the Police decided to release the records relating to them but to deny access in part to other records. The two individuals appealed the decision to release the records relating to them.
During the course of mediation, the Police released additional records to the requester. The requester has also agreed that certain severances are no longer at issue in this appeal.
