Introduction
The Administrative Tribunals Support Service of Canada (ATSSC) was established on November 1, 2014, with the coming into force of the Administrative Tribunals Support Service of Canada Act. The ATSSC is responsible for providing support services and facilities to 11 federal administrative tribunals by way of a single, integrated organization.
The ATSSC provides the full range of support services and facilities required by the tribunals to meet their statutory obligations. These services include specialized and expert support services (e.g., research and analysis, legal and other case-specific work), registry services and corporate services, including obligations under the Access to Information Act (the Act).
The ATSSC is pleased to present to Parliament its 1st annual report on the administration of the Act for the period November 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015.
The purpose of the Act is to extend the present laws of Canada to provide a right of access to information in records under the control of a government institution in accordance with the principles that government information should be available to the public, that necessary exceptions to the right of access should be limited and specific, and that decisions on the disclosure of government information should be reviewed independently of government. The Act is intended to complement and not replace existing procedures for access to government information and is not intended to limit in any way access to the type of government information that is normally available to the general public.
Section 72 of the Act requires the head of every federal government institution to prepare and table an annual report to Parliament on the administration of the Act during the fiscal year. This report outlines how the ATSSC administered the Act from the date the organization came into force, November 1, 2014, to March 31, 2015.
About the ATSSC
The creation of the ATSSC is consistent with the government’s ongoing commitment to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of its administration and operations. By consolidating the provision of support services for 11 administrative tribunals, the government is strengthening overall capacity and modernizing operations to better meet the administrative needs of federal tribunals and to improve access to justice for Canadians.
The administrative tribunals served by the ATSSC include:
- the Canada Industrial Relations Board;
- the Canadian Cultural Property Export Review Board;
- the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal;
- the Canadian International Trade Tribunal;
- the Competition Tribunal;
- the Public Servants Disclosure Protection Tribunal;
- the Public Service Labour Relations and Employment Board;
- the Canadian Agricultural Review Tribunal;
- the Specific Claims Tribunal;
- the Social Security Tribunal; and
- the Transportation Appeal Tribunal of Canada.
The ATSSC’s work encompasses a broad range of activities required by the tribunals to meet their statutory obligations, including the following:
- Common functions of corporate services (e.g., human resources, financial services, information technology, accommodations and communications);
- Registry services; and
- Core mandate support services (e.g., research and analysis, legal and other case-specific work).
The ATSSC reports to Parliament through the Minister of Justice.
The Access to Information and Privacy Office
The Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Office is part of the Executive Secretary’s Office, which is under the direction of the Chief Administrator. Oversight of the ATIP Office is administered by the Executive Secretary who is also the ATIP coordinator for the ATSSC. The ATIP manager is responsible for the daily operations of the ATIP office and reports to the Executive Secretary. The ATIP Office comprises two full-time employees who are dedicated to access to information and privacy activities.
The ATIP Office receives, coordinates and processes requests for information under the Act, and serves as the main point of contact for the Office of the Information Commissioner (OIC).
Designation Order
Decision-making responsibility for the application of the various provisions of the Act has been formally established and is outlined in the Designation Order signed by the Chief Administrator on November 3, 2014. The Executive Secretary and the ATIP manager have also been delegated authorities as described in the designation order included in Appendix A.
ATSSC Statistical Overview
As the ATSSC was established on November 1, 2014, the statistical report reflects the period of November 1, 2014, to March 31, 2015. A copy of the Statistical Report is included in Appendix B.
Since coming into force, the ATSSC has received a total of 8 formal requests under the Act, 9 consultations and 1 informal request. One formal request will be carried forward into the new fiscal year period as it was received toward the end of this fiscal year. Therefore, a total of 7 formal requests were processed and completed under the Act for this reporting period.
Sources of Requests
Six (6) requests were submitted by the general public. Two (2) requests were submitted by the media.
Consultations
In addition to processing requests received under the Act, the ATSSC received nine consultation requests from other federal institutions on records deemed relevant to the ATSSC.
Disposition of Completed Requests
Since November 1, 2014, the ATSSC completed 7 requests under the Act. For 3 of those cases, the information sought was released in full. For another 3 of those cases, the ATSSC invoked exemptions and the requested information was released in part. No records existed for the final request.
Exemptions Invoked
The exemptions invoked by the ATSSC fell under the following sections of the Act:
- Subsection 19(1), which protects personal information, was used in 3 cases; and
- Section 23, which protects solicitor-client privilege information, was used in 1 case.
Completion Time and Extensions
The ATSSC responded to 2 requests within 1 to 15 days, 4 requests within 16 to 30 days, and 1 request within 31 to 60 days.
An extension of 30 days was taken for 1 request under section 9(1)(a) of the Act because the request was for a large number of records. In addition, meeting the original time limit would have unreasonably interfered with the operations of the ATSSC.
Complaints
The ATSSC was the subject of 1 complaint filed with the OIC, which dealt with the failure to provide records. The ATIP Office addressed that complaint by providing the necessary records to the OIC within the requested timeframe and met with the OIC to discuss the file. The results of the OIC investigation were outstanding at the time of this report.
Training Activities
No training activities were provided during this reporting period. Training opportunities and activities will be identified in the next fiscal year.
Policies, Guidelines and Procedures
A draft Access to Information Framework was developed and the ATSSC anticipates that it will be finalized in the new fiscal year. The ATSSC is guided by the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) access to information and privacy policy suite and instruments.
The ATSSC completed a partial Info Source chapter to meet the TBS requirements and will continue to build a complete chapter that describes all the ATSSC’s information holdings.
Monitoring
Monitoring access to information requests was conducted via a detailed spreadsheet containing all relevant and necessary information to ensure compliance with the legislated requirements. The spreadsheet was updated as new requests were received or the status of a file was changed. Weekly meetings between the ATIP manager and the Executive Secretary to discuss workload and priorities also assisted the ATSSC to meet its statutory obligations.
