Summary:  The HEU requested access to the original cleaning services contractbetween the public body and Compass Canada and a copy of the contract as it was subsequently amended.  Compass asked for a review of the public body's decision to give access to portions of the contract relating to the financial amounts and the timelines of some of the terms of the contract.  The information was found to be commercial and financial information of Compass, but the information in the contract was found to be negotiated and not supplied.  Compass also failed to substantiate that disclosure would cause economic harm.  The three-part test of s. 21(1) of FIPPA was not met.  Public body ordered to disclose the rest of the contract.

 

Statutes Considered:  Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, ss. 21(1)(a)(ii), (b) and (c)(i) and (iii).
