PO-4617 | Order | Access to Information Orders | Anna Kalinichenko | En savoir plusExpand | |
An individual made a request under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act to the Ministry of the Solicitor General for a police report related to a specified occurrence and any additional information about them in relation to the occurrence. The ministry disclosed to the individual some records. It withheld some information because its disclosure could reasonably be expected to interfere with a law enforcement matter (section 49(a), read with section 14(1)) and would result in an unjustified invasion of other individuals’ personal privacy (section 49(b)). In this order, the adjudicator orders the ministry to disclose additional information and otherwise upholds the ministry’s decision. |

PO-4615 | Order | Access to Information Orders | Chris Anzenberger | En savoir plusExpand | |
The ministry received multiple requests for records related to the death of the appellants’ son. This appeal deals with records about a related breach of trust investigation into a police officer who investigated the death. The ministry initially withheld the majority of the records under the law enforcement exemptions related to an ongoing investigation (sections 14(1)(a), (b), and (f)). During the inquiry, an individual was charged with the death of the appellants’ son, and the ministry instead claimed the prosecution exclusion for some of the records (section 65(5.2)). The ministry also claimed the exemption at section 49(a), read with section 19 (solicitor-client privilege), and section 49(b) (personal privacy) for portions of other records. In this order, the adjudicator finds that the records are excluded from the Act due to the ongoing prosecution exclusion or otherwise exempt from disclosure under the sections claimed by the ministry. However, he finds that a portion of background information should be disclosed for compassionate reasons, and orders this information to be disclosed. |

An individual submitted a request to the Ottawa Community Housing Corporation (the housing corporation) under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act for the name of an individual involved in a theft. The housing corporation granted partial access to the records, withholding some information. The housing corporation denied access to an individual’s name and apartment number because disclosure of that information would be an unjustified invasion of that individual’s personal privacy (section 38(b)). In this order, the adjudicator upholds the housing corporation’s decision not to disclose the withheld information and dismisses the appeal. |

An individual asked the Ministry of Health (the ministry) for records, under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act), related to his employment file with the ministry, including records related to his union’s dealings with the ministry, and to harassment and discrimination complaints. The ministry found records responsive to the request but would not release them. The reason for this decision was that the ministry said that Act does not apply to the records since they relate to employment and labour relations (under the exclusions at sections 65(6)1 and 65(6)3 of the Act). In this order, the adjudicator upholds the ministry’s decision and dismisses the appeal. Since she finds that records responsive to two parts of the request would also be excluded under section 65(6)3, the adjudicator does not consider the issue of reasonable search. |

The appellant, a lawyer, made a request to the Ministry of the Solicitor General for records of calibration tests performed on a specific breathalyzer used by a detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police over a two-month period. The appellant was asking for results of periodic “standalone” tests conducted on the equipment to determine if it was in proper working order and not any tests conducted on actual breath samples. As the appellant would not confirm whether the requested records related to an ongoing prosecution, the ministry assumed the records related to a prosecution for an alcohol related offence under the Criminal Code and issued a decision denying access. The ministry maintained that the Criminal Code provides a complete code for disclosing records relating to breathalyzer equipment. Consequently, the ministry claimed that the doctrine of federal paramountcy applies to oust the application of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act). During the inquiry into the appeal, the possible application of section 65(5.2) of the Act that excludes records relating to an ongoing prosecution was added as an issue to be determined. However, the Commissioner finds that the records are excluded from the scope of the Act under section 65(5.2). The right of access and the Commissioner’s jurisdiction under the Act are determined based on the facts and law existing at the time the institution issues its decision. Given that the requested records related to a prosecution that was ongoing at the time of the ministry’s decision, the exclusion at section 65(5.2) of the Act applied and the appellant did not have a right to access them. The Commissioner upholds the ministry’s decision denying access and dismisses the appeal. |

CYFSA Decision 21 | Decision | Child, Youth, and Family Information and Privacy | Jenny Ryu | En savoir plusExpand | |
The complainant is the mother of a child who was placed in the care of Ogwadeni:deo (the service provider) by a court order. For a period while the child was in its care under the terms of the court order, the service provider received child benefits from the federal government for the child’s care and maintenance. After the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) questioned the mother’s eligibility for a similar benefit over part of this time period, the mother alleged a number of privacy breaches by the service provider. Among other complaints, she alleges the service provider inappropriately shared personal information with its finance department, which applied for the federal benefit, and with the CRA. She also asserts that the service provider shared inaccurate information, by failing to report that the child lived with her for some of the period covered by the court order. In this decision, the adjudicator finds that the service provider did not contravene the Child, Youth and Family Services Act, 2017 (CYFSA) through its use and disclosure of personal information in connection with receiving federal child benefits. She dismisses the complaint. |
