File #  PA10-334
Institution/HIC  Ministry of Natural Resources
Summary  The appellant made a request to the Ministry of Natural Resources for records relating to an administrative decision the ministry had made in regard to the opening and operation of a quarry. The ministry issued a decision granting access to some records, either in whole or in part. Access to other records, in their entirety, was denied. The ministry claimed the application of the exemptions in sections 13 (advice or recommendations), 17 (third party information), 18 (economic and other interests), 19 (solicitor client privilege) and 21 (personal privacy). In this order, the adjudicator upholds the ministry’s decision in part, and orders the ministry to disclose a number of records, either in whole or in part, to the appellant. The adjudicator also upholds the ministry’s exercise of discretion.
