File #  PA06-308 and PA07-65-2
Institution/HIC  Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation
Summary  A broadcast journalist requested information from the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation about insider wins in paper form, and from the OLG’s winners’ database. The Ontario Provincial Police are conducting an investigation into insider wins. Information relating to charges arising from an insider win is excluded from the scope of the Act under section 65(5.2) (records relating to an ongoing prosecution). The application of that section in the circumstances of this appeal is not retroactive. In addition, some information is exempt under section 14(1)(a) (law enforcement), sections 18(1)(c) and (d) (economic and other interests), and 21(1) (personal privacy). Section 23 (the public interest override) applies to some of the information that is exempt under section 21(1). The OLG is ordered to disclose the information that is not exempt, and information that is subject to the public interest override; and to prepare a revised fee estimate; and to provide notice to some individuals for whom section 14 is no longer claimed.
