5825-01230 — Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada and Department of Justice and Public Services and Procurement Canada

Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada

The complainant alleged that Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC) took an unreasonable time extension for an access request and improperly processed two requests as one. The request concerned updated consultation agreements and related internal government records. The Information Commissioner found the time extension for consultations with the Department of Justice unreasonable, citing excessive delays and lack of justification for the 90-day period. However, the Commissioner determined that CIRNAC was justified in processing the two requests as a single request.
