Hi Jan, No, the call for records states that both sets of expenses are in the custody and control of Finance. Finance also got the request and they are still gathering records. We will put on the response letter that those records reside with Finance and the applicant will get those records under FIN-2012-00196 and that no other people travelled with the minister except Tobie.

Exercise of Discretion:

The Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act) contains both mandatory and discretionary exceptions

to disclosure. Sections 13 to 20 are the discretionary exceptions. Where Information Access Operations (lAO) has advised

the head that a discretionary exception may apply, it is important that the head consider the possibility of releasing the

information despite the fact that an exception may apply.

'Note that all General FOI request records that are released to an applicant should be published on the Open Information website unless the exemption criteria apply. The exemption criteria can be found on page 11 of the Open Information and Open Data Policy.

Request: 292-30jEGM-2012-00163 Factors relevant to the exercise of discretion include:

• the general purposes of the legislation: public bodies should make information available to the public; individuals should have access to personal information about themselves;

• the wording ofthe discretionary exception and the interests which the section attempts to balance; • whether the individual's request could be satisfied by severing the record and by providing the applicant with as much

information as is reasonably practicable; • the historical practice of the public body with respect to the release of similar types of documents; • the nature of the record and the extent to which the document is significant and/or sensitive to the public body; • whether the disclosure of the information will increase public confidence in the operation of the public body;

• the age of the record; • whether there is a sympathetic or compelling need to release materials; • whether previous orders of the Commissioner have ruled that similar types of records or information should or should not

be subject to disclosure; and • when the policy advice exception is claimed, whether the decision to which the advice or recommendations relates has

already been made.

'Note that all General FOI request records that are released to an applicant should be published on the Open Information website unless the exemption criteria apply. The exemption criteria can be found on page 11 of the Open Information and Open Data Policy.

Sandra et. ai,

The same request has been sent to the Ministry of Finance already, who will handle the Ministers' office expenses. Can you please canvass your respective Ministry for the " ... any BC government personnel and family members who travelled with Minister Coleman." portion of the request?

Much appreciated!

You will need to go to the Ministry of Finance for the response for Minister Coleman. We do not hold any records for the Minister's office expenses. We will check if any ministry employees accompanied him and obtain the documenta tion associated with the trip.

Sandra.
