Annual Report to Parliament on the Access to Information Act 2018 to 2019

1. Introduction

The Access to Information Act (ATIA) provides the Canadian public with a broad right of access to information in records under the control of a government institution. This is in accordance with the principles that government information should be available to the public and that necessary exceptions to the right of access should be limited and specific.

Section 72 of the ATIA requires that the Head of every federal government institution submit an annual report to Parliament on the administration of this Act over the fiscal year. The Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness has delegated the administration of the ATIA, including the reporting of the Annual Report, to the Commissioner of the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC).

This report describes how the CSC fulfilled its access to information responsibilities during the reporting period covering 2018-2019.

2. Organizational Structure

2.1 About Correctional Service of Canada

CSC was formed in 1979 through the amalgamation of the Canadian Penitentiary Service and the Parole Board of Canada (PBC). CSC has the fundamental obligation to contribute to public safety by actively encouraging and assisting offenders to become law-abiding citizens, while exercising reasonable, safe, secure and humane control.

By operating under the rule of law, CSC contributes to public safety by administering court-imposed sentences for offenders sentenced to two years or more. This involves managing institutions (penitentiaries) and supervising offenders.

CSC works closely with its Public Safety Portfolio partners, including the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), PBC, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), in addition to oversight bodies including the Office of the Correctional Investigator (OCI).

2.2 Delegation Order

The Commissioner of CSC is responsible for dealing with requests under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act. The Minister delegates this authority to members of departmental senior management, including the ATIP Departmental Coordinator (ATIP Director), to carry out his powers, duties, and functions under the Acts, in relation to ATIP requests. Certain authorities are delegated to particular positions in the ATIP Division at National Headquarters as shown in Appendix A of this report.

2.3 The ATIP Division

The ATIP Division reports to the Director General of Rights, Redress and Resolution under the Policy Sector and is divided into five components:

Access to Information Operations
Privacy Operations
Backlog
Policy and Governance
Information and Processing Unit (ATIP Administrative Team)

The Access to Information Operations and Backlog teams are headed by one Deputy Director. The Access to Information Operations team is managed by one team leader, and is responsible for reviewing records, conducting consultations, applying exemptions and exclusions, preparing release packages for applicants, and responding to complaints from the Office of the Information Commissioner. The Backlog teams are managed by two team leaders, and are responsible solely for processing files received prior to 2017.

The Privacy Operations team is headed by one Deputy Director, who is currently assisted by one team leader with three analysts, and one stand-alone PM-05. These teams process formal and informal requests under the Privacy Act (PA).

The Policy and Governance Unit (PGU) develops reports, policies, guidelines, tools and procedures to support ATIP requirements within CSC; oversees the Privacy Impact Assessment process; manages privacy breaches; reviews disciplinary, harassment, fact-finding and workplace violence reports; processes requests under 8(2) of the PA and complex privacy requests; responds to use and disclosure complaints; and provides training.

The Information Processing and Reporting Unit (IPR), is comprised of one Manager and clerical support staff. IPR is responsible for processing incoming requests, generating routine correspondence, retrieval tasking, ensuring quality control, preparing final release packages, and providing general support to the ATIP office.

In addition, each sector, region, institution, district, parole office and community correctional centre has an access to information and privacy liaison who assists the national ATIP Division in administering its overall responsibilities.

3. Highlights of the Access to Information Act Statistical Report for 2018-2019

3.1 Requests Processed Under the Access to Information Act

In 2018-2019, CSC received 452 ATIA requests, a one percent decrease from the previous year. A total of 403 requests were carried over from the previous reporting year, totaling 855 requests requiring processing in 2018-2019. CSC responded to 408 access to information requests, representing 48 percent of the total number of requests received and outstanding from the previous reporting period. Please refer to Appendix B for the Statistical Report.

3.1:Access to Information Request Workload:
This graph shows that in 2014-2015, 555 requests were received, 182 were outstanding from the previous reporting period, and 517 requests were closed. In 2015-2016, 646 requests were received, 219 were outstanding from the previous reporting period, and 617 requests were closed. In 2016-2017, 582 requests were received, 252 were outstanding from the previous reporting period, and 508 were closed. In 2017-2018, 474 requests were received, 327 were outstanding from the previous reporting period, and 377 were closed. In 2018-2019, 452 requests were received, 403 were outstanding from the previous reporting period, and 408 were closed.

This graph shows the total workload of access to information requests as a sum of requests received during the reporting period and requests outstanding from the previous reporting period. The line illustrates the trend of files closed. This graph is a clear depiction of our current situation - ATIP continues to be challenged by a long-standing backlog. Although some improved efficiencies have been implemented to address the backlog, CSC ATIP continues to struggle.

3.2 Disposition of Requests

This graph shows that in the 2018-2019 reporting period, 90 requests were fully disclosed; 127 were partially disclosed; seven were withheld in their entirety; 79 were unable to be processed; 105 requests were abandon by applicant.

3.3 Exemptions and Exclusions

The majority of exemptions invoked by CSC fell under five sections of the Access to Information Act:

Subsection 19(1), used to protect personal information, was applied in 117 cases (40 percent)
Subsection 16(1), used to protect information relating to law enforcement and investigations, was applied in 39 cases (13 percent)
Subsection 20(1), used to protect information relating to third party information, was applied in 65 cases (22 percent)
Subsection 16.1(1), used to protect information relating to investigations, examinations and audits, was applied in 27 cases (9 percent)
Subsection 21(1), used to protect information relating to advice, was applied in 20 cases (7 percent)

A complete breakdown of the exemptions applied during this reporting period is as follows:

Exemption Description	Number of Times Applied
Obtained in Confidence	8
Federal-Provincial Affairs	1
International Affairs and Defence	4
Law Enforcement & Investigation	31
Security	8
Investigations, examinations and audits	27
Economic Interests	1
Personal Information	117
Third Party Information	65
Operations of Government (Advice)	20
Testing Procedures	2
Solicitor-Client Privilege	8
Statutory Prohibitions	1
Information to be published	1
Published information	5
Cabinet Confidences	2
Total	301

3.4 Extensions

A total of 52 extensions were required during this reporting period. This represents a decrease in extensions in comparison to the previous fiscal year. As requests get more voluminous, complex and require an increased amount of programming time when asking for statistics, the need for dedicated search time is subsequently increased.

3.5 Completion Time

During the reporting period, CSC completed 168 requests in less than 30 days; 59 between 31 and 60 days; 40 requests between 61 to 120 days; 22 requests between 121 to 180 days; and 119 requests were completed in over 180 days.

3.6 Deemed Refusals

Over the years, an increasing number of files have been closed beyond the statutory deadline. During this fiscal year, 53% of the requests (214) were closed beyond the statutory deadline, an 11% increase from last fiscal year. It is expected this trend will continue until CSC ATIP receives additional resources.

3.7 Informal Requests

During the reporting period, 277 informal requests were received. A total of 146 requests were carried over from the previous reporting year, totaling 423 informal requests requiring processing in 2018-2019. These include the review of audit and evaluation reports, lists of briefing notes, and requests for previously released access to information packages.

A total of 15 informal requests were closed during 2018-2019.

3.8 Consultations from Other Institutions and Organizations

The ATIP Division’s workload involves responding to consultations in response to formal requests received by other institutions and organizations. CSC works closely with its partners under the Public Safety portfolio such a CBSA, RCMP, CSIS and PBC in an effort to respond to consultations in a timely fashion. CSC is consulted on such subjects as court cases, offender grievances, Office of the Correctional Investigator (OCI) matters, offender files, and deported individuals.

During the 2018-2019 reporting period, the ATIP Division received a total of 109 consultations from other institutions and organizations.

4. Access to Information Fees for the Purposes of the Services Fees Act

The Services Fee Act requires a responsible authority to report annually to Parliament on the fees collected by the institution.

With respect to fees collected under the Access to Information Act, the information below is reported in accordance with the requirements of section 20 of the Service Fees Act.

Enabling authority: Access to Information Act
Fee amount: $1,625
Total revenue: $1,585
Fees waived: $40 (In accordance with the Interim Directive on the Administration of the Access to Information Act, issued on May 5, 2016, Correctional Service Canada waives all fees prescribed by the Act and Regulations, other than the $5 application fee set out in paragraph 7(1)(a) of the Regulations.)
Cost of operating the program: $644,418

5. Training and Awareness

The Policy and Governance Unit plays a fundamental role in developing and delivering training to employees at National Headquarters (NHQ), Regional Headquarters and at the institutional level across Canada, as well as the ATIP staff, on ATIP related matters.

During this reporting period, the ATIP Division continued delivering ATIP Awareness training to the sectors and the regions in order to ensure CSC employees have an understanding of ATIP and the importance of their role in the process.

Eleven training sessions were delivered this reporting period – four sessions were delivered at NHQ – 35 employees received training. An additional seven training sessions were delivered in the regions, comprising of 122 employees.

PGU continues to provide advice and answer questions and concerns regarding training, policy and guidelines, and interpretations of the Acts through its generic email account. Through the use of these email accounts, CSC staff is provided with a single point of contact to increase their knowledge of the ATIP legislation.

6. Policies, Guidelines, Procedures and Initiatives

Over the past year, the ATIP Division has continued to update internal guidelines and procedures as required, including:

Assisting with the creation of communication products and briefing materials to share information regarding Bill C-58 with senior management, employees and offenders.
Updating internal procedures regarding the redacting of low numbers which resulted in the release of additional information to requesters.
Streamlining operating procedures
Statistical reporting in response to Access to Information Act requests to ensure accuracy and improved coordination.
Fine-tuning the proposed ATIP Professional Development Program (ATIP-PDP) senior ATIP management designed as part of its HR plan. The program serves to address present and future operational needs. The program is designed to develop individuals from the PM-02 to the PM-04 level, using external and internal qualified candidates. It is currently in the approval process.
Reminding all staff of the process for the preservation of videos and their responsibility to promptly retrieve and preserve videos when requested.

7. Complaints and Audits

At the end of this reporting period, CSC received a total of 53 complaints with a total of 54 findings issued which is a decrease in the number of complaints received last fiscal year (72 complaints were received in 2017-2018). There were 75 active complaints remaining.

The majority of access complaints received during this reporting period were denial of access due to no record responses and delay/time limit complaint. The delay complaints reflect the reality that CSC is a department that receives a high number of requests for voluminous files and must manage this work with competing priorities and limited resources.

As a result of OIC’s investigations, recommendations, and the number of privacy complaints received (and carried over), some key issues raised and subsequent actions taken during this 2018-2019 period are:

Although timeliness of our responses to complaints remains an issue, CSC ATIP continues to address this as a priority - ATIP continues to build its HR component and has dedicated the majority of staff to lessening the backlog.
Liaised with the Office of the Information Commissioner to prioritize complaints and resolve issues prior to the section 37 letter stage.
The continued use of a divisional complaints coordinator so that the ATIP Division can work closely with the OIC to respond to formal complaints and queries using a single point of contact.

There were no audits undertaken during this fiscal year.

8. Monitoring Compliance

The ATIP Division produces a monthly report for senior management that captures various statistics, including the number of requests which have been received, closed and are still outstanding. This report is shared with the Director General, Rights, Redress and Resolution and the Assistant Commissioner, Policy.

In addition to the reports, the IPR Unit actively monitors and triages the incoming requests, regularly reporting to senior management any requirement to reassess priorities and redistribute workload to improve performance.
