FIPPA - 17(1)

The requester sought access to financial information under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act contained in contracts for caretaking and security services provided to the university. The university denied access to some of this information, relying on the mandatory third party exemption in section 17(1). Both the requester and one of the service providers appealed the university’s decision to the IPC.

In this order, the adjudicator finds that the financial information in the contracts does not qualify as information subject to the exemption for third party information in section 17(1). She orders the university to disclose it to the requester.
