MO-4565

An individual asked the Toronto Police Services Board to provide her with all records in which she is named. The police decided to disclose a significant number of records to her but refused to provide her with some records and parts of records. The individual wanted access to the information not provided to her and also believed that the police had not located all records in their search. In this order, the adjudicator upholds the police’s decision to withhold some records because they are excluded from the Act under the exclusion for labour relations or employment records (section 52(3)3). He also upholds the police’s decision to withhold information that they received from a law enforcement agency in the United States (section 38(a), read with section 9(1)(d)), and the names and other personal information of individuals other than the appellant, because disclosure would be an unjustified invasion of those individuals’ personal privacy (section 38(b)). He orders the police to provide the appellant with the names of two individuals identified in a professional capacity in the records. Finally, he finds that the police conducted a reasonable search for records responsive to the appellant’s request.
