Ontario Realty Corporation ordered to issue a decision letter following a deemed refusal of an FOI request.
The appellant submitted a freedom of information request to the Ontario Realty Corporation (ORC) for land transfer documents and related records.
The ORC failed to issue a decision letter within the prescribed 30-day period and did not request a time extension, resulting in a deemed refusal under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
The adjudicator ordered the ORC to issue a decision letter to the appellant without recourse to a time extension.
