The complainant alleged that Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC) had improperly withheld records related to land ownership and transactions on the Bruce/Saugeen Peninsula under section 23 (solicitor-client and litigation privilege). CIRNAC initially claimed solicitor-client privilege but later conceded this did not apply. The institution then argued litigation privilege, citing ongoing court cases. However, the Commissioner found CIRNAC failed to demonstrate that the records were created for the dominant purpose of litigation. The Commissioner recommended full disclosure, but CIRNAC refused to implement the recommendation.

The complainant alleged that the Department of Justice Canada did not conduct a reasonable search for a 2009 workplace report. The Department stated that the record's retention period was five years and it was requested seven years later, meaning it would have been destroyed. While the complainant claimed the consultant still had a copy, the Department argued it was not reasonable to contact the consultant directly given the nature and age of the contract. The OIC agreed that the Department conducted a reasonable search.
