The City of Ottawa received a request under the Act for access to records relating to the successful bid response to a specified RFP for healthcare procurement services. The city granted partial access to the records, withholding portions pursuant to various exemptions. The requester appealed the city’s decision and claimed a public interest in the disclosure of the withheld information.
In this order, the adjudicator finds that the third party information exemption in section 10(1) of the Act applies to the remaining information at issue. She finds that the public interest override in section 16 does not apply. She upholds the city’s decision and dismisses the appeal.
