A federal institution submitted an application to the Information Commissioner under subsection 6.1(1) of the Access to Information Act, seeking approval to decline to act on an access request. The institution argued that the request constituted an abuse of the right to make a request. The Commissioner reviewed the institution's submission and found that the institution successfully established that the access request was indeed an abuse of the right to make a request. Consequently, the Commissioner determined that the circumstances warranted granting approval for the institution to decline to act on the request. The application was therefore granted, allowing the institution to refuse processing the access request.
