This order deals with an access decision made by the Ministry of Education (the ministry) under the Act for any final products, including reports, delivered to the ministry by a named company during a specified time frame in order to fulfill its consulting contracts related to COVID-19. The ministry denied access to the records, claiming the application of the mandatory Cabinet Record exemption in section 12(1). In this order, the adjudicator finds that the records are exempt from disclosure under the introductory wording in section 12(1), and the appeal is dismissed.
