The Peel Regional Police Services Board (the police) received an access request under the Act for records relating to certain police records involving the requester. The police provided partial access to the responsive records. They withheld information under the discretionary exemptions at section 38(a) (discretion to refuse a requester’s own personal information), read with section 8(1)(g) (intelligence information), as well as section 38(b) (personal privacy). On appeal, these exemptions were challenged, along with the reasonableness of the police’s search for responsive records, under section 17. In this order, the adjudicator upholds the police’s application of the exemptions and the reasonableness of their search. Therefore, the appeal is dismissed.
