Motion for supplementary disclosure under section 317 dismissed as disclosure is limited to materials before the decision-maker.
In a statutory appeal under the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act against administrative monetary penalties imposed by FINTRAC, the appellant moved to compel supplementary disclosure under section 317 of the Federal Courts Rules.
The appellant argued that the Director delegated her decision-making authority to staff, meaning the material before the staff should also be disclosed.
The Court dismissed the motion, finding no evidence of improper delegation and ruling that disclosure under section 317 is limited to the relevant material that was before the actual decision-maker.
