Introduction

The Annual Report to Parliament on the Administration of the Privacy Act (the Act) within the Department of Finance Canada (the 'Department') is prepared and tabled in Parliament in accordance with section 72 of the Act and covers the period from April 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018.

Purpose of the Privacy Act

The Act came into force on July 1, 1983. Its purpose is to protect the privacy of individuals with respect to personal information about themselves held by federal government institutions. It also provides Canadian citizens, permanent residents, and individuals present in Canada a right of access to their personal information.

The Department recognizes that the right of access to personal information is an essential element of our system of democracy. It is committed to openness and transparency, respecting both the spirit and the requirements of the Act, its regulations and related policy instruments. The Department further acknowledges the importance of facilitating access to information by requiring that its employees make every reasonable effort to assist applicants.

Mandate of the Department of Finance Canada

The Department helps the Government of Canada develop and implement strong and sustainable economic, fiscal, tax, social, security, international and financial sector policies and programs. It plays an important central agency role, working with other departments to ensure that the government's agenda is carried out and that ministers are supported with high-quality analysis and advice.

The Department's responsibilities include:

  • preparing the federal Budget and the Update of Economic and Fiscal Projections;
  • preparing the Annual Financial Report of the Government of Canada and, in cooperation with the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat and the Receiver General for Canada, the Public Accounts of Canada;
  • developing tax and tariff policy and legislation;
  • managing federal borrowing on financial markets;
  • designing and administering major transfers of federal funds to the provinces and territories;
  • developing financial sector policy and legislation; and
  • representing Canada in various international financial institutions and groups.

The Minister of Finance is accountable for ensuring that his responsibilities are fulfilled both within his portfolio and with respect to the authorities assigned through legislation. In particular, the Minister has direct responsibility for a number of acts as well as fiscal and tax policy relating to other acts that are under the responsibility of other ministers.

Administration of the Privacy Act

Access to Information and Privacy Division

The Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Division is part of the Communications Policy Division, Consultations and Communications Branch. The ATIP Division is responsible for administering the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act for the Department. As a centralized operation, the ATIP Division coordinates the timely processing of requests under the legislation, handles complaints lodged with the Privacy Commissioner, and responds to informal inquiries. Division staff also provides guidance to departmental officials on matters involving the Act. Within the ATIP Division, 16 employees were dedicated on a full-time basis to the administration of the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act along with related functions. The ATIP Division comprises a director, supported by two team leaders, ten ATIP analysts and three administrative assistants.

Principles on Assistance to Applicants

With the passing of the Federal Accountability Act, section 4(2.1) was added to the Access to Information Act:

"The head of a government institution shall, without regard to the identity of a person making a request for access to a record under the control of the institution, make every reasonable effort to assist the person in connection with the request, respond to the request accurately and completely and, subject to the regulations, provide timely access to the record in the format requested."

While a similar provision was not included in the Privacy Act, the Department is nonetheless committed to both the spirit and intent of these principles and to the Directive on Privacy Requests and Correction of Personal Information with respect to their application when processing Privacy Act requests.

Educational and Training Activities

This year, the ATIP Division participated in two departmental Orientation Sessions. These are provided to employees who are new to the Department as a means to introduce them to the activities of each Branch. It provided information about the ATIP Division, the Act, and information management practices to 47 new employees.

Five other training sessions were given to 151 departmental employees within various branches of the Department. Some of the training was delivered using the Canada School of Public Service on-line ATIP training module to ensure that it is consistent with the whole of government approach. Other specific training included information sessions on the Privacy Act. This included awareness on the Guidelines for Privacy Breaches and Directive on Privacy Impact Assessment.

Ad hoc training on a variety of subjects was also provided as needed to individuals throughout the Department including to new ATIP branch contacts. 

Policies, Guidelines, Procedures and Initiatives

To ensure policy compliance and adherence to procedures for appropriate handling and preparation of responses to ATIP requests, the ATIP Division continued to update tools used by staff both in the ATIP Division and across the Department and held face-to-face meetings with new staff and contacts. Both tools and meetings were instrumental in ensuring that the Department's employees are aware of their roles and responsibilities related to access to information and privacy requests.

Delegation of Authority

The delegation of authority approved on December 1, 2015 provides the authority to approve or deny the release of information under the Act is shared by the Deputy Minister, the Associate Deputy Ministers, the Assistant Deputy Ministers of Consultations and Communications Branch and Corporate Services Branch, the Senior Director, Communications Policy Division, the ATIP Director, ATIP Team Leaders and Senior ATIP analysts to sign off on more administrative matters. The ATIP Director normally performs the function, with the exception of disclosures pursuant to paragraph 8(2)(e) of the Act, which are usually handled by the Assistant Deputy Minister of the Corporate Services Branch.

Information Holdings

All government institutions subject to the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act publish an inventory of their information holdings as well as relevant details about personal information under their control. The information can assist individuals in making an access to information or personal information request, or in exercising their privacy rights.

A description of the Department's programs, activities, and information holdings, including its classes of records and personal information banks can be found in Info Source: Sources of Federal Government and Employee Information.

Some programs and activities, such as human resources and financial management, are common to most government institutions. These are known as internal services and they involve the following types of information:

Interpretation of Statistical Report (Annex A)

Part 1 – Requests under the Privacy Act

The number of formal requests received in 2017-2018 was 20, a 10% increase from 18 formal requests received the previous reporting year. One request was carried over from 2016-2017. By the end of 2017-2018, all 21 requests were completed.

Table 1 illustrates a five-year trend.

Part 2 – Requests Closed During the Reporting Period

Disposition / Completion Time of Requests

Many individuals who submit Privacy Act requests incorrectly assume that the Department holds the same type and amount of personal information as is held by the Canada Revenue Agency, banks, and trust companies. That is not the case and explains why many requests do not result in the retrieval of personal information. The following table indicates the disposition of the 21 completed requests this fiscal year:

Disposition / Completion Time of Requests
Disposition Number of Requests Percentage of Requests
All disclosed 3 14.2 %
Disclosed in part 0 0 %
All exempted 0 0 %
All excluded 0 0 %
No records exist 15 71.4 %
Request abandoned 3    14.2 %
Neither confirmed or denied     0 0 %
Total 21 100.0 %

Completion Time

Of the 21 requests completed, all were closed on time. Of the 21 requests closed during the reporting period; all 21 (100%) were completed within 30 days.

Exemptions / Exclusions

In 2017-2018, the Department did not invoke any exemptions pursuant to specific sections of the Act.

No exclusions were also applied.

Format of Information Released

Records were provided to applicants in three cases and all were in paper format. No applicants asked to review the records as opposed to receiving a copy.

Complexity

None of the requests were considered complex as they did not contain any personal information about individuals other than the requestors.

Deemed Refusals

All requests were responded to within the statutory deadlines

Translations

There were no requests for translation this reporting period. 

Part 3 – Disclosures under Subsection 8(2) and 8(5)

Paragraph 8(2)(e) of the Act allows for disclosures of personal information "to an investigative body…for the purpose of enforcing any law." The Department did not make any disclosures pursuant to paragraph 8(2)(e) of the Act in this reporting period.

Paragraph 8(2)(m) of the Act allows for disclosures of personal information in the public interest.  The Department did not make any disclosures pursuant to paragraph 8(2)(m) of the Act in this reporting period.

Part 4 – Requests for Correction of Personal Information and Notations

No requests for corrections or notations were received from applicants this reporting period.

Part 5 – Extensions

One extension of the statutory time limits under the Act was taken due to interference with operations.

Part 6 – Consultations Received from Other Institutions and Organizations

No consultations were received from other government institutions or organizations.

Part 7 – Completion Time of Consultations on Cabinet Confidences

No consultations with respect to Cabinet confidences were required.

Part 8 - Complaints/Investigations/Audits

No complaints were lodged against the Department during the reporting period and none were carried forward from 2016-2017.

An investigative review (audit) initiated by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (OPC) in 2015-2016 reviewed the personal information handling practices related to the operationalization of the Security of Canada Information-Sharing Act (SCISA). As the Department does not use or disclose any personal information pursuant to SCISA no further information was required by the Department. The OPC has concluded its review and released their findings on September 21, 2017:  Review of the Operationalization of the Security of Canada Information Sharing Act.  

Part 9 - Privacy Impact Assessments

The Department did not initiate or complete any Privacy Impact Assessments this reporting period.

Part 10 – Resources Related to the Privacy Act

Administration of the Act cost the Department $25,779.00 in 2017-2018. Costs incurred in the reporting period include the salaries of ATIP Division staff and the administrative expenses associated with administration of the Act. Costs do not include salaries of other departmental personnel involved in processing requests.

Appeals to the Federal Court of Canada

No appeals were made to the Federal Court.

Monitoring Compliance

Due to the small number of requests processed by the Department under the Act, including corrections or notations, monitoring of requests is conducted within the ATIP Division as required in order to ensure that the Department meets its legislated obligations.

Material Privacy Breaches

There were two material privacy breaches which occurred this reporting period.

The first privacy breach involved the incorrect storage and handling of personnel information of employees in branch shared drive. The type of information stored included various human ressources files. Files could be accessed by all branch employees who all have Secret security clearance.

Further to the initial privacy breach of May 29, 2017, a departmental review of all shared drives was conducted by each branch in consultation with the ATIP Division to ensure proper storage and handling of personal information. Appropriate measures have since been put into place to ensure any sensitive human resource type information is stored properly and access is provided on a need to know basis.

The second privacy breach involved a former employee's security file which was inadvertently sent to an incorrect recipient at another department. The former employee was made aware of the privacy breach shortly after the file was mistakenly sent to someone else in her new department, who then provided the file directly to her. Since this privacy breach, measures have been put in place to prevent a recurrence of a similar incident.

Disclosures Pursuant to Paragraph 8(2)(m)

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. There were no disclosures pursuant to paragraph 8(2)(m) for the 2017–2018 period.
