An individual asked the ministry for a copy of a report relating to a carbon monoxide leak at her place of employment. The ministry granted the individual partial access to the requested records claiming that some portions were not responsive to the request and that disclosure of other portions would constitute an unjustified invasion of personal privacy under section 21(1) of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. The appellant appealed the ministry’s decision and also claimed that additional records should exist. The adjudicator upholds the ministry’s decision to withhold portions of the records and finds that it conducted a reasonable search.
