Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada

The complainant alleged that Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) failed to respond to an access request within the extended deadline. The request sought records concerning parliamentary consideration of electric vehicle battery manufacturing facilities, related agreements, and the use of foreign workers. The investigation found that ISED did not respond by the required date and was deemed to have refused access. The delay was attributed to a lack of responsiveness from one of its offices. The Information Commissioner ordered ISED to provide a complete response within 60 business days.
