PO-3134

File #  PA08-97-2
Institution/HIC  University of Ottawa
Summary  The appellant sought access to all records held by the University of Ottawa relating to the Ottawa Cinema Politica film series, dating from October 30, 2006. The university denied access to some of the responsive records pursuant to the exclusionary provision in section 65(6) (labour relations), and the discretionary exemptions in section 49(a) (discretion to withhold a requester’s own information), read in conjunction with section 19 (solicitor-client privilege), and section 49(b) (personal privacy). The appellant claimed that the university’s search for records was not reasonable. This order upholds the university’s search and access decision.
