MFIPPA - 38(b)
An individual submitted a request to the London Police Services Board (the police) under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act for records related to a specified incident. The police granted partial access to the records withholding some information.
The police denied access to 911 calls because disclosure would be an unjustified invasion of an identifiable individual’s personal privacy (section 38(b)), and because the information could reveal a confidential source (section 38(a) read with section 8(1)(d)) of the Act. In this order, the adjudicator upholds the police’s decision not to disclose the 911 calls and dismisses the appeal.
