1. Introduction
The purpose of the Access to Information Act (ATIA) is 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 of the disclosure of government information should be reviewed independently of government.
The Act provides every person who is a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident with a right of access to any record under the control of a government institution, with some specific, limited exceptions.
The Canadian Northern Economic Development Agency (CanNor) is fully committed to both the spirit and the intent of the Access to Information Act to ensure openness and transparency within the department. This report summarizes the activities of CanNor in implementing the Act, and fulfills the requirement under Section 94 of the Act which stipulates that, the head of every government institution shall prepare for submission to Parliament an annual report on the administration of this Act within the institution during each financial year.
Mandate
Contributing to jobs and growth in Canada, CanNor works to develop a diversified, sustainable and dynamic economy across Canada's three territories. It does this by delivering funding programs to Northerners and Indigenous people, guiding resource development and major projects across the North through the Northern Projects Management Office, undertaking research to support the development of evidence-based policies, advocating for northern economic prosperity and diversification, and collaborating with other federal departments, territorial governments, Indigenous organizations, and industry.
2. Organizational structure
For the purposes of the Access to Information Act, the President of CanNor has delegated powers, duties and functions under the Act to the Corporate Secretary . The Corporate Secretary performs the role of ATIP Coordinator responsible for leading the ATIP Program. The ATIP Coordinator administers the Act with assistance from an Administrative Officer. Assistance may also be obtained via the procurement of specialized professional services as required.
The ATIP Coordinator is accountable for the development, coordination and implementation of effective policies, guidelines, systems, and procedures to meet responsibilities under the Act, and to permit processing requests, and disclosure of information. Additionally, the ATIP Coordinator provides strategic support and advice to the executive management of the Agency regarding the administration of the ATIP program, and is responsible for all access to information activities and operations pursuant to the ATIA such as:
- processing and responding to all formal requests and interdepartmental consultations under the Access to Information Act;
- providing strategic advice to the Agency about ATIP-related matters;
- preparing guidance documents in support of access legislation;
- updating Info Source based upon the program alignment architecture and in keeping with the TBS Decentralized Publishing Requirements;
- preparing the Annual Report to Parliament on the Access to Information Act;
- training employees on their roles and responsibilities under the ATIA; and
- responding to informal inquiries.
CanNor was not party to any service agreements in accordance with section 96 of the Access to Information Act during the reporting period.
3. Delegation order
The President's Access to Information Delegation Order (Annex A), was updated on March 23, 2020. It provides delegated authority to the Corporate Secretary and the Manager, IM/IT and Chief Information Officer.
4. Performance 2019-2020
CanNor's 2019-2020 Statistical Report on the Access to Information Act is attached as Annex B. The following is an overview of key data on CanNor's performance for the fiscal year:
a) Requests received under the Access to Information Act
CanNor received six requests, four of which were processed and closed during the 2019-2020 fiscal year. The two remaining requests have been carried over to the 2020-2021 reporting period. Two extension requests were made, one for 15 days and another for 30 days, however neither were completed within these extended deadlines. CanNor completed two out of six requests on time, leading to a 33% rate of completion within legislated timelines, compared with a 40% rate in 2018-19. No informal requests were received or processed outside the Access to Information Act during this reporting period. One informal request was received in 2017-2018 and none were received in 2018-2019.
The following table shows a comparison for the past three years with respect to ATIP requests.
| ATIP requests | 2017-2018 | 2018-2019 | 2019-2020 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Received during reporting period | 1 | 5 | 6 |
| Outstanding from previous reporting period | 0 | 0* | 0 |
| Total | 1 | 5 | 6 |
| Closed during reporting period | 0 | 5 | 4 |
| Carried over to next reporting period | 1* | 0 | 2 |
| * One request which was previously reported as carried forward to 2018-19 was subsequently treated as a consultation and is included in the table in part b) | |||
b) Consultations received from other Government of Canada institutions
Twenty-three consultations from other Government of Canada Departments were received during 2019-2020 and one was carried forward from 2018-19. Ten were processed within 1-15 days, six within 16-30 days, five within 31 to 60 days, one within 61 to 120 days, and two within 181 to 365 days. During the 2018-2019 reporting year, 12 consultations were received from other Government of Canada Departments and one was carried over from the previous year; five were processed within 1-15 days, four within 16-30 days, and one within 31-60 days.
The following table shows the comparison for the past three years with respect to Consultation requests.
| Consultation requests | 2017-2018 | 2018-2019 | 2019-2020 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Received during reporting period | 31 | 12 | 23 |
| Outstanding from previous reporting period | 0 | 1* | 1** |
| Total | 31 | 13 | 24 |
| Closed during reporting period | 31 | 10 | 24 |
| Carried over to next reporting period | 0 | 1** | 0 |
| **CanNor's report for the 2018-19 year incorrectly stated three requests were carried over to the next reporting period. The table above has been updated with the correct information. | |||
c) Impacts of COVID-19-related measures and implemented mitigation measures
From March 14 to March 31, 2020, CanNor's ATIP Coordinator and staff were provided with network access from their home from the start of the pandemic in order to receive and respond to Access to Information and Privacy requests, as well as Consultation requests received from other Government of Canada institutions. Office building access was available on an as needed basis in case any non-electronic documents or documents labelled "Secret" needed to be reviewed. However, the Agency did not receive any requests during this time period, therefore, COVID-19-related measures had no impact on its ability to fulfil its responsibilities under the Access to Information Act.
5. Training and awareness
Informal briefings and awareness sessions were provided to CanNor employees on the administration of the Access to Information Act.
6. Policies, guidelines, procedures and initiatives
CanNor complies with the TBS Interim Directive on the Administration of the Access to Information Act, posting summaries of completed access to information requests to the Government of Canada's Open Government portal. Posting these summaries demonstrates consistent procedures across government institutions and helps make released records from previously made Access to Information requests discoverable and available at no cost.
CanNor uses tools to assist the Office of Primary Interest with identifying sensitivities in records that makes it easier to identify types of information that may qualify for an exemption. Using standardized retrieval email and template letters improves efficiency. A new data collection method was implemented in order to better track and retrieve information pertaining to ongoing and completed requests. The Agency did not implement or amend any Access to Information policies during the reporting period.
7. Summary or key issues and actions taken on complaints or audits
There were no complaints received concerning the administration of the Access to Information Act, and no audits, investigations or appeals to the Federal Court were undertaken.
8. Monitoring compliance
For the majority of the reporting year, the Director of Corporate Services & CFO was the official responsible for completion timelines, however, following the creation of the role of Corporate Secretary at CanNor in February, this new official is now charged with coordinating ATIP requests and is aware of processing timelines on a continual basis. A new data collection method was implemented which allowed for effective monitoring.
