2014-2015 Annual Report on the Administration of the Access to Information Act

The Access to Information Act

The Access to Information Act (hereafter the “Act”) gives Canadian citizens, as well as individuals and corporations present in Canada, the right to access federal government records that are not of a personal nature. The public’s right of access to information is balanced against the legitimate need to protect sensitive information and to permit effective functioning of government, while promoting transparency and accountability in government institutions.

The Act complements but does not replace other procedures for obtaining government information. It is not intended to limit in any way access to government information normally available to the public upon request.

Section 72 of the Act requires the head of every government institution to submit an annual report to Parliament on the administration of the Act during the fiscal year. This report describes how the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) administered the Act throughout fiscal year 2014-2015.

Overview of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service

In 1984, the Government of Canada passed an Act of Parliament for the creation of a civilian security intelligence service. This legislation not only gave birth to CSIS, it also clarified the differences between security intelligence activities and law-enforcement work, bringing to an end the 120-year interlocking of Canada's security intelligence service with the federal police force. CSIS came into existence on July 16, 1984.

CSIS is at the forefront of Canada's national security establishment and as such, its programs are proactive and pre-emptive. Its role is to investigate threats, analyze information and produce intelligence. CSIS reports to, and advises, the Government of Canada so as to protect the country and its citizens. Key threats include terrorism, espionage, foreign interference, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and cyber-threats against critical information systems and infrastructure.

Through its Security Screening Program, CSIS provides advice that prevents non-Canadians who pose security concerns from entering Canada or receiving permanent resident status or citizenship. CSIS also helps prevent individuals of security concern from gaining access to Canadian information, assets, sites or events.

The Access to Information and Privacy Section

The Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Section reports to the Assistant Director Policy and Strategic Partnerships via the Director General Litigation and Disclosure Branch. The ATIP Section has an establishment of 15 employees to fulfill CSIS’ obligations under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act. The CSIS Legal Services Branch provides legal advice as required.

When fully staffed, the ATIP Section is comprised of a Chief, a Deputy Chief, three unit Heads, eight Analysts and two Officers. During the reporting period, staffing levels varied between 10 and 13 positions. At the end of the reporting period, 13 positions were filled; the Deputy Chief and one Analyst positions were vacant. All staff in the ATIP Section is fully dedicated to the administration of the ATIP program within CSIS, providing high-quality and timely responses to our clients.

Listed below is the ATIP Section’s responsibilities vis-à-vis the Access to Information Act:

• receive and process all requests in accordance to the Act;
• assist requesters in formulating their requests when required;
• gather all pertinent records and ensure that the search for information is rigorous and complete;
• assess fees;
• conduct the initial record review and provide recommendations to the program areas;
• conduct all internal and external consultations;
• consolidate the recommendations;
• apply all discretionary and mandatory exemptions under the Act;
• assist the Office of the Information Commissioner (OIC) in all access to information related matters including complaints against CSIS;
• represent CSIS in access to information litigation cases;
• coordinate the annual Info Source update and submission to Treasury Board Secretariat (TBS);
• prepare the annual report on the administration of Act;
• provide ongoing advice and guidance to senior management and departmental staff on all matters related to the access to information program;
• promote access to information awareness and training sessions within the department to ensure all staff are aware of the obligations imposed by the legislation;
• monitor departmental compliance with the Act, regulations and relevant procedures and policies;
• respond to consultations received from external organizations;
• maintain the CSIS’ public reading room;
• develop and maintain access to information policies and guidelines; and
• participate in ATIP community activities, such as the annual Canadian Access and Privacy Association (CAPA) conference, TBS ATIP community meetings and various working groups.

Activities and Accomplishments 2014-2015

CSIS has been an active participant in the support and promotion of access to information. To improve the service quality and ease of access for citizens, to reduce processing costs for the agency, and to continue modernizing its service delivery model, CSIS has joined the Access to Information and Privacy online request service that allows individuals to submit and pay for their request online. This initiative is part of a commitment to modernize the administration of the access to information as announced in April 2012 under the Government of Canada Open Government Action Plan.

This service has been well received as the numbers of requests submitted online are increasing weekly.

All requests submitted to CSIS are closely monitored. Weekly reports are generated by the ATIP processing software to follow the progress of each request to ensure the timeliness of responses.

Completion Rate

This year, the on time completion rate is over 99%.

Deemed Refusals

One request was closed past the statutory deadlines due to software problems. No requests were carried over in deemed refusal.

Other Requests

The ATIP Section also acted as a resource for CSIS officials and offered advice and guidance on the provisions of the legislation. The ATIP Section was consulted on issues relating to a range of matters, such as information management issues, security of information, draft policies and memoranda of understanding and releases of information made by CSIS outside the parameters of the Act.

Education and Training

During the 2014-2015 reporting period, the ATIP Section continued to conduct awareness sessions through an ATIP e-learning video. The video is a requirement for all new employees and acts as a reference for all others. The video provides participants with an overview of the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act, to promote a better understanding of their responsibilities and obligations under the Acts and awareness of the ATIP process within CSIS.

Over the reporting period, the ATIP Section took part in the Information Management Awareness Fair as well as the Professional Development Day.

Delegation of Authority

In accordance with section 73 of the Access to Information Act, a delegation order signed by the Minister of Public Safety Canada designates the persons holding the positions of Director of CSIS, the Assistant Director Policy and Strategic Partnerships, the Director General, Litigation and Disclosure Branch and the Chief ATIP to exercise and perform the duties of the Minister as Head of the institution. The order was issued on January 21, 2014, by the Minister of Public Safety Canada, the Honourable Steven Blaney.
