Orders

If the OIPC cannot settle a request for review or complaint by mediation, the issue can proceed to an inquiry. At the conclusion of the inquiry, the Commissioner or delegate issues a legally binding Order that determines the outcome of the dispute. Orders are enforceable by a court of law, and are subject to judicial review by the BC Supreme Court.

How to use this table: Orders can be sorted by date, number and title -- click on the column heading to sort by that category. Use the drop-down menus to filter Orders by legislation type (FIPPA or PIPA) and year. Leading Cases contain extensive discussion of a specific section of the Act.
