5823-01218 — Employment and Social Development Canada
Employment and Social Development Canada
The complainant alleged that Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) improperly withheld records concerning CSL Group Inc. and failed to conduct a reasonable search. The Information Commissioner found that ESDC did not provide sufficient justification for withholding most of the information under various exemptions, including those related to law enforcement, personal information, third-party commercial information, and advice/deliberations. Additionally, the Commissioner found that ESDC's search for records was not reasonable. As a result, the Commissioner ordered ESDC to disclose most of the information and conduct a new search.
