An individual submitted a request to the South Simcoe Police Services Board (the police) under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act) for records related to three specific police occurrences. The police granted partial access to the responsive records withholding information under the discretionary personal privacy exemption (section 38(b)), and because some of the information could facilitate commission of an unlawful act (section 38(a) read with section 8(1)(l)) of the Act. In this order, the adjudicator upholds the police’s decision and dismisses the appeal.
