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 the appellant (section 49(a)), that, if disclosed could facilitate the commission of an unlawful act (section 14(1)(l)). It also said that disclosure would result in an unjustified invasion of the personal privacy of individuals other than the appellant (section 49(b)). In this order, the adjudicator finds that some of the information the ministry did not disclose should be provided to the appellant. However, he upholds the decision of the ministry not to disclose the remaining information to the appellant.
