Summary  ORDER On September 20, 1993, the undersigned was appointed Inquiry Officer and received a delegation of the power and duty to conduct inquiries and make orders under the provincial Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act and the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act . BACKGROUND: The Metropolitan Licensing Commission (the Commission) received a request pursuant to the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act ) for access to records listing the taxi license plates owned by 44 named licensees on a particular date in 1975, at which time each of these owners were granted additional licenses. With respect to one of the licensees, the requester also sought access to an affidavit provided by the licensee to the Commission when the additional license was granted in 1975. The Commission responded by informing the requester that the estimated fee for processing the request would be $1095, which is comprised of: 1. Search costs beyond 2 hours $840.00 ($30.00 per hour) 2. Photocopy costs 15.00 ($0.20 per page) 3. Preparation of the record 240.00 ($30.00 per hour) The Commission requested a deposit of $547, and informed the requester that exemptions under section 14 of the Act might apply to some or all of the records requested. The requester appealed the amount of the fee estimate. Mediation of the appeal was not successful and notice that an inquiry was being conducted to review the decision of the Commission was sent to the appellant and the Commission, both of whom submitted representations.
