Commissariat au lobbying – Loi sur l'accès à l'information – Rapport annuel 2019-2020
Introduction
The Access to Information Act (ATIA) (Revised Statutes of Canada 1985, Chapter A-1) was proclaimed on July 1, 1983. The ATIA gives Canadian citizens and permanent residents a broad right of access to information contained in government records, subject to certain specific and limited exceptions.
Section 94 of the ATIA stipulates that the head of every government institution shall prepare and submit to parliament an annual report on the administration of the ATIA for each fiscal year.
Consequently, this annual report is submitted by the Office of the Commissioner of Lobbying (OCL) in accordance with the ATIA. It describes how the OCL fulfilled its access to information responsibilities during the fiscal year 2019-20.
In addition, this annual report is prepared and tabled in accordance with section 20 of the Services Fees Act.
The Office of the Commissioner of Lobbying
The Commissioner of Lobbying’s mandate, derived from the Lobbying Act (the Act), is to ensure transparency of the lobbying of federal public office holders. This contributes to increasing the confidence Canadians have in the integrity of government decision making.
The Commissioner's mandate is threefold:
- maintaining the Registry of Lobbyists, which contains and makes public the registration information disclosed by lobbyists;
- developing and implementing educational programs to foster public awareness of the requirements of the Act; and
- conducting reviews and investigations to ensure compliance with the Act and the Lobbyists’ Code of Conduct (the Code).
Under the Act, the Commissioner of Lobbying also has the authority to grant exemptions to former designated public office holders who are subject to a five-year prohibition on lobbying activities.
The Commissioner reports annually to Parliament on the administration of the Act and the Code. The Commissioner is also required to table to Parliament reports on investigations, which include her findings, conclusions and the reasons for her conclusions.
Organizational Structure and Delegation of Authority
The ATIA provides the authority to the Commissioner of Lobbying to exercise all powers granted under the Act. The OCL’s Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Coordinator is delegated this authority via a Delegation Order, of which copies are attached in Annex A. The OCL has two employees responsible for the administration of the ATIA, an ATIP Coordinator and an Executive Assistant.
The Director of Investigations and Corporate services was the ATIP Coordinator from April 1st, 2019 to March 31, 2020. The ATIP Coordinator is responsible for the development, coordination and implementation of effective policies, guidelines and procedures to ensure the OCL’s compliance with the ATIA. The Coordinator makes decisions on the disposition of requests under the ATIA, promotes awareness of the legislation to ensure organizational responsiveness to its obligations, as well as monitors and advises on compliance with the ATIA, regulations, procedures and policies. Further, the Coordinator acts as spokesperson for the OCL in dealings with the Treasury Board Secretariat, the Information Commissioner, and other government departments and agencies. The Coordinator is also responsible for conducting consultations with other federal organizations and other governments within Canada as required.
The Executive Assistant provide support to the ATIP Coordinator on the process of any requests received.
Due to the limited number of requests received, the OCL did not dispose of any service agreements under section 96 of the Access to Information Act during the reporting period from April 1st, 2019 to March 31, 2020.
Under the Act, the OCL collects information from registrants and lobbyists and the disclosures filed by registrants are accessible on the Registry of Lobbyists at the following address: lobbycanada.gc.ca.
The OCL’s Annual Report and Reports on Investigations must be tabled in both Houses of Parliament. They are also posted on the OCL’s website and on the Open Government Portal under the AIA requesting that all reports tabled in Parliament be proactively disclosed.
Administration of the Access to Information Act
Statistical Report
Annex B provides a statistical summary of requests under the Access to Information Act (ATIA) received during fiscal year 2019-20.
In 2019-20, the OCL received 14 request under the ATIA: 13 were processed formally and one informally. 100% of the requests were closed within legislated timelines. The requests that were received pertained mainly to lobbying. Four requests were in relation to OCL’s communication services and internal services.
Sources of requests
Of the 13 formal requests received, six came from media, one from an academic organization, one from the business sector, one from an organization, three from the public and one came from an unidentifiable source, as the requestor declined to identify. The informal request was made by a Canadian citizen.
Disposition and completion time
The informal request was processed in less than 15 days.
Three formal requests were closed in 1 to 15 days:
- For one of these three requests, the documents were completely disclosed. For the two other requests, no records existed.
Nine formal requests were closed in 16 to 30 days:
- Of these nine requests, two were completely disclosed and four were disclosed in part as they contained information: obtained under subsection 16.2(1), contained information that is relative to solicitor-client privilege (section 23) or contained personal information (subsection 19(1)). For three of these nine requests, no records existed.
One request was closed in 61 to 120 days
- This request was disclosed in part, because some of the documents contained personal information (subsection 19(1)).
Exemptions
As mentioned, five request were disclosed in part. This was due to the fact that these requests contained information under :
- Subsection 19(1) that refers to material containing personal information;
- Subsection 16.2(1) that refers to information that was obtained or created by the Commissioner or on her behalf in the course of an investigation; or
- Section 23 that refers to information that is subject to solicitor-client privilege or to litigation privilege.
For these requests, the OCL processed and released 10,234 pages on which some information has been redacted.
Extensions
An extension was requested for the request that was closed in 61 to 120 days. The extension request was made under subsection 9(1)(c) that authorize the head of a government institution to extend the time limit set out in section 7 or subsection 8(1) if the notice of the request is given pursuant to subsection 27(1) regarding notice to third parties.
Consultations from other institutions
In 2019-20, the OCL received 15 consultations for other federal institutions. All these consultations were completed in less that 15 days. A total of 87 pages were reviewed and recommended for full disclosure.
Evolution over the years
In 2019-20, the volume of formal request received and completed by the OCL increased by 550% from last fiscal year and had an increased of about 115% on consultations from other federal institutions.
Fiscal year | Formal requests received | Formal requests completed | Consultation completed for other institutions |
---|---|---|---|
2019-20 | 13 | 13 | 15 |
2018-19 | 2 | 2 | 7 |
2017-18 | 5 | 5 | 12 |
2016-17 | 8 | 8 | 3 |
2015-16 | 5 | 5 | 9 |
2014-15 | 4 | 5 | 9 |
COVID-19 impacts
As the OCL took steps to equip employees to work from home before the pandemic and because the Office receives only a few access to information requests, the COVID-19 pandemic did not have an impact on the processing of access to information requests. Therefore, the OCL did not have to put in place mitigation measures.
Fees
The Service Fees Act requires a responsible authority to report annually to Parliament on the fees collected by the institution. With respect to fees collected by the OCL under the ATIA, the information below is reported in accordance with the requirements of section 20 of the Service Fees Act.
The fees collected for the processing of requests under the ATIA during the reporting period totalled $30.00 for six formal requests. On July 12, 2019, the OCL took the decision to dispense the fees for the processing of requests pursuant to paragraph 7(1)(a) of the Access to Information Regulations.
Consequently, the fees were dispensed for seven formal requests received by the OCL for a total of $35.00.
In accordance with the Interim Directive on the Administration of the Access to Information Act, issued on May 5, 2016, the OCL waives all fees prescribed by the Act and Regulations. No fees are imposed for reviewing records, overhead or shipping costs.
The OCL incurred total expenditure of approximately $ 6,175 for the application of the ATIA in 2019-20. This amount was allotted to staff salary.
Information holdings
In accordance with the Access to Information Act, the information gathered by the OCL is used only for the purposes for which it was obtained.
The OCL is responsible for providing a full accounting of information holdings to the Treasury Board Secretariat and ensuring that updates are provided for inclusion in the Canada.ca publication. This publication contains a description of the classes of institutional records held by the OCL, and can be obtained through public or academic libraries or it may be viewed online on the Treasury Board Secretariat’s website at Canada.ca.
Implemented policies, guidelines, procedures and initiatives
During the reporting period, the OCL did not implement new policies, guidelines, procedures or initiatives.
OCL website
The OCL’s website available at lobbycanada.gc.ca allows members of the public to access and search the Registry of Lobbyists, as well as obtaining copies of reports such as the OCL’s annual reports on Access to Information and Privacy. Summaries of completed requests are available on the OCL website and on Canada’s Open Data Portal.
Reading room
A reading room is available at the OCL’s office. Our office is located on the 8th Floor at 410 Laurier Avenue West, Ottawa, Ontario, K1R 1B7, Canada.
Education and training activities
In 2019-20, the OCL did not provide education and training activities to its staff.
Complaints
The OCL received one notice of intention to investigate from the Office of the Information Commissioner in 2019-20.
Application to the Federal Court
There were no applications filed during 2019-20 related to the ATIA.
Time to process access to information request monitoring
