Annual Report on the Administration of the Privacy Act 2014–2015

April 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015

Table of Contents


Introduction

The Privacy Act (Revised Statutes of Canada, Chapter A-1, 1985) was proclaimed on July 1, 1983.

The Privacy Act (the Act) extends to individuals the right of access to information about themselves held by the government, subject to specific and limited exceptions. The Act also protects the individual's privacy by preventing others from having access to personal information and gives individuals substantial control over its collection, use and disclosure.

This annual report describes how the Canada School of Public Service (the School) administered its responsibilities under the Act during the 2014–2015 fiscal year. This report is tabled in Parliament in accordance with section 72 of the Act.

The Canada School of Public Service is the common learning service provider for the Public Service of Canada. The School has a legislative mandate to provide a range of learning activities to build individual and organizational capacity and management excellence within the public service.

The School has one strategic outcome: Federal public service employees have the common knowledge, skills and competencies to fulfil their responsibilities in serving Canadians.

Established on April 1, 2004, under the Public Service Modernization Act and operating under the authority of the Canada School of Public Service Act (CSPS Act), the School's primary responsibility is to provide a range of learning opportunities and develop a learning culture within the public service.

The School, a departmental corporation, is mandated under the CSPS Act to

  • encourage pride and excellence in the public service;
  • foster a common sense of purpose, values and traditions in the public service;
  • support deputy heads in meeting the learning needs of their organizations; and
  • pursue excellence in public management and administration.

The School supports deputy head accountabilities with respect to leadership and professional development across the public service by identifying organizational needs and designing and delivering high-quality, practical programs that address the key development requirements of public service employees.

Organizational Structure and Access to Information and Privacy Responsibilities

The School's Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) activities are primarily carried out by the ATIP and Parliamentary Affairs Office, which is part of the Strategic Directions, Program Development and Marketing Branch. This unit is led by the Senior Director of the Marketing, Communications and Public Affairs Directorate and is composed of a manager, who is now the School's ATIP Coordinator, two ATIP advisors and an administrative services assistant. The position of manager was created and staffed in 2014–2015 to increase the level of attention provided for these important democratic functions.

The ATIP Coordinator is responsible for daily activities related to the administration of the Act.

In addition to its activities related to parliamentary affairs, the responsibilities of the School's ATIP and Parliamentary Affairs Office include the following:

  • processing requests for information submitted under the Access to Information Act and requests for personal information pursuant to the Privacy Act in accordance with legislation, regulations and Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) policies and guidelines;
  • responding to consultations received from other government institutions and organizations;
  • providing advice and guidance to requesters on the application of ATIP legislation as well as awareness and training to School employees;
  • cooperating with the Office of the Information Commissioner and with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner on the resolution of complaints;
  • reviewing departmental documents prior to their proactive disclosure on the School's Web site;
  • ensuring that the School's information holdings (classes of records and personal information banks) are published in Info Source;
  • preparing the statistical reports and the annual reports on the administration of the Access to Information Act and on the administration of the Privacy Act; and
  • participating in ATIP community activities, such as the TBS-led ATIP coordinators' and ATIP practitioners' meetings and working groups.

Delegation of Authority

For the purpose of the Act, the Deputy Minister/President of the School delegated full authority to the Senior Director of the Marketing, Communications and Public Affairs Directorate in July 2014. A copy of the signed delegation instrument for the Act in effect on March 31, 2015 is included in Annex A.

Interpretation of the Privacy Act Statistical Report 2014–2015

The following outlines the information contained in the Statistical Report on the Privacy Act for 2014–2015, which is attached as Annex B.

Requests Received Under the Act

Between April 1, 2014 and March 31, 2015, the School received nine requests for personal information under the Privacy Act. The School also had one outstanding request from the previous reporting period. Six requests were completed during the current year, and four were carried forward to the following year. The School did not receive any consultations from other government institutions or organizations in 2014–2015.

Disposition of Completed Requests

None of the requests resulted in full disclosure to the applicant; in four cases, some information was withheld. The requester decided to withdraw the request in two instances.

Completion Time and Extensions

Three requests were processed within the first 60 days, and the remaining three requests required between 61 and 180 days to process.

Section 15 of the Privacy Act provides for the extension of the statutory time limits for a maximum of 30 days if meeting the original time limit would unreasonably interfere with the operations of the government institution or if consultations are necessary to comply with the request that cannot reasonably be completed within the original time limit. In 2014–2015, the School claimed extensions on three requests. In these three cases, extensions were obtained due to a large volume of records to review that would have resulted in unreasonable interference with the School's operations.

During the reporting period, the School was unable to meet its deadline for four requests. Two of the deadlines were missed due to the workload of the ATIP and Parliamentary Affairs Office, and the other two fell into the category of "Other" due to unexpected software difficulties (now resolved) for one request and the unavailability of key officials for the remaining request.

Exemptions and Exclusions

This section of the Statistical Report identifies the number of requests in which specific exemptions or exclusions were invoked. If the same exemption or exclusion is claimed several times for the same request, it is reported only once.

The School invoked exemptions under section 26 on four requests. This provision protects personal information pertaining to individuals other than the requester.

The School did not invoke exclusions in 2014–2015.

Format of Information Released

The School provided records on electronic media in three cases and in paper format in response to one request.

Relevant Pages Disclosed

A total of 2,451 pages were reviewed by staff during the reporting period, with 1,557 of them resulting in disclosure (in full or in part) to requesters. The remaining 894 pages were withheld pursuant to the Act's exemptions.

Costs

Salary costs related to the administration of the Privacy Act incurred by the ATIP and Parliamentary Affairs Office are estimated at $61,475. Overhead and maintenance costs are estimated at $5,008 for a total of $66,483.

Disclosures Under Paragraphs 8(2)(e) and 8(2)(m) of the Privacy Act

Paragraph 8(2)(e) of the Act allows for the disclosure of personal information to an investigative body subject to specific criteria prescribed by the Privacy Regulations. The School did not disclose any personal information pursuant to paragraph 8(2)(e) during 2014–2015.

Paragraph 8(2)(m) of the Act allows for the disclosure of personal information when the public interest clearly outweighs any invasion of privacy or when the disclosure would benefit the individual. The School did not disclose any personal information pursuant to paragraph 8(2)(m) during 2014–2015.

Training and Awareness

The ATIP and Parliamentary Affairs Office continually works to inform and guide employees and requesters regarding the requirements of the Privacy Act by means of ongoing dialogue and informal discussions. During the reporting period, the employees of the ATIP and Parliamentary Affairs Office responded to inquiries from employees and management, providing advice and guidance on various subjects pertaining to the Act.

In winter 2015, two training sessions on the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act were offered to the School's executives. A total of 35 executives participated in the sessions.

A dedicated section on the School's intranet site provides School employees and ATIP liaison officers with key information on ATIP and reiterates employee accountability for ensuring that personal information is handled in accordance with the Act.

New Procedures, Guidelines and Directives

The School did not implement new or revised privacy policies, guidelines or procedures in 2014–2015.

Complaints

The Office of the Privacy Commissioner (OPC) notified the School of two new complaints in 2014–2015. Both complaints alleged that the School did not disclose all relevant information in response to requests for personal information. The investigations were still ongoing as of March 31, 2015.

The School was not notified of the findings of any complaints by the OPC in 2014–2015.

Monitoring Time of Process

Since the School is a small institution with a relatively small number of requests in comparison to other institutions, the Vice-President of the Strategic Directions, Program Development and Marketing Branch is kept informed of the time taken to process personal information requests through ongoing verbal briefings.

Material Privacy Breaches

No material privacy breaches occurred during the reporting year.

Privacy Impact Assessments

The School did not complete any Privacy Impact Assessments in 2014–2015.
