5823-02374 — Privy Council Office

Privy Council Office

The complainant alleged that the Privy Council Office (PCO) failed to respond to an access request within the extended deadline. The request was for records related to "ICSI Meetings 2001". The investigation found that PCO did not respond by the required date, and was therefore deemed to have refused access under subsection 10(3) of the Access to Information Act. The delay was attributed to the ATIP office's failure to initiate consultations and process the request promptly. The Information Commissioner ordered PCO to provide a complete response within 36 business days, and PCO has confirmed it will comply.
