The parties requested an order from the Tribunal incorporating their agreement with respect to the production and use of sensitive business documents.
The Tribunal declined to order the agreement in its entirety, noting that it could not guarantee absolute confidentiality in light of potential freedom of information requests and its obligation to compile a public record for judicial review.
The Tribunal issued a modified protective order that balanced the parties' desire for confidentiality with the Tribunal's obligation to provide a fair and public hearing.
