The appellant made a request under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act for all police records relating to him. The police granted partial access to a five-page report, withholding some information because its disclosure would constitute an unjustified invasion of another individual’s personal privacy (section 38(b)) and other information because it is not responsive to the request.
In this order, the adjudicator upholds the police’s decision in part. She finds that the police properly withheld another individual’s personal information under section 38(b). She also finds that the police properly withheld some of the information they identified as non-responsive. However, she finds that other information that the police withheld as non-responsive is responsive to the request and orders them to issue an access decision with respect to that information.
