The Information Commissioner reviewed an institution's application to decline acting on an access request. The institution argued the request was an abuse of the right of access. However, the Commissioner found the institution's submissions insufficient and noted they failed to assist the requester or adequately demonstrate an abuse of access rights. Consequently, the Commissioner denied the application.
The complainant alleged that National Defence improperly withheld information concerning the Intelligence Advisory Committee under exemptions related to international affairs/national security (subsection 15(1)) and personal information (subsection 19(1)). While the institution disclosed some information during the investigation, the Information Commissioner found that the remaining withheld information did not meet the requirements of subsection 15(1), as the potential harm from disclosure was not apparent. The Commissioner recommended full disclosure, but National Defence disagreed and chose not to implement the recommendation.
