In a request made under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, an individual asked the ministry for records of the Ontario Provincial Police that relate to him. The ministry provided access to the records in part. It did not disclose some information saying that it contained the personal information of other individuals (section 49(b)), that, if disclosed, could reveal investigative techniques and procedures (section 14(1)(c)) or could facilitate the commission of an unlawful act (section 14(1)(l)). In this order, the adjudicator finds that some of the withheld information should be provided to the appellant. However, he upholds the decision of the ministry not to disclose the remaining information to the appellant.
