Document		MO-2841-I


File #		MA11-23-2


Institution/HIC		Toronto Police Services Board


Summary		The appellant requested access to records that postdated a previous request, but addressed similar subject matter. The Toronto Police Services Board located only one record that was responsive to the appellant’s updated request and relied on section 9(1)(d) (relations with other governments), in conjunction with section 38(a), as well as 38(b) (personal privacy) to deny access to the portion they withheld. The appellant took issue with the reasonableness of the police’s search for responsive records, the manner in which the police processed the request and the application of the exemptions. This interim order finds that the police did not conduct a reasonable search for responsive records and requires them to conduct a further search. The other issues will be addressed after the police provide the results of their search and a federal government agency is notified of the appellant’s request for access to the record that the police identified as responsive to the request.
