FIPPA - 21(5)
An individual seeks access under the Act to a copy of an arbitrator’s decision relating to the termination of an identified college professor. The ministry refused to confirm or deny the existence of the record.
In this order, the adjudicator upholds the ministry’s decision, accepting that the disclosure of any responsive records, if they exist, and disclosure of whether the responsive records exist would be an unjustified invasion of privacy. She also finds no compelling public interest in disclosing whether the responsive records exist that would outweigh the purpose of the exemption claimed.
