The complainant alleged that the Privy Council Office (PCO) failed to conduct a reasonable search for records related to IAC reports concerning the USSR and former Warsaw Pact and Yugoslavia from 1990. Initially, PCO provided only minutes, leading to the complaint. During the investigation, PCO conducted an additional search, releasing 1,352 pages, but the complainant maintained that several specific reports were still missing. The OIC was not satisfied with the initial search efforts and requested further representations from PCO. PCO subsequently identified that some of the missing reports had been previously withheld in their entirety, some were not in their holdings, and 100 additional pages covering other requested documents were located. The Commissioner found that PCO had now conducted a reasonable search and ordered PCO to process and release the newly identified records by January 22, 2026. PCO agreed to implement the order.
