The ministry received a request under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act for a report on the Ontario government’s approach to caring for individuals with specified medical conditions. The ministry located the report but withheld it under section 13(1) of the Act because it contained advice or recommendations to the government.
In this order, the adjudicator finds that the report does not qualify for exemption under section 13(1) because it falls within the section 13(2)(f) exception for records about the performance or efficiency of a government program. He orders the ministry to disclose the record.
