The Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery (the ministry) received a request under the Act for access to records relating to a named company’s application to become a licensed consumer reporting agency. The ministry decided to disclose the records, in part. The named company appealed the ministry’s decision In this order, the adjudicator finds that some information that the ministry decided to disclose qualifies as personal information. As the requester does not seek access to personal information, she orders the ministry not to disclose it to the requester. She also finds that section 17(1) (third party information) does not apply. As a result, the adjudicator partially upholds the ministry’s decision.
