Office of the Saskatchewan Information and Privacy Commissioner. Guide to LA FOIP, Chapter 6, Protection of Privacy. Updated 27 February 2023. 258 Commissioner found that the assessment information collected on the applicant was for the enumerated purpose of determining eligibility to an income program offered by Social Services. The assessment information contained the comments of the assessor. However, the Commissioner found that Social Services did not demonstrate that the scores on the assessment were provided explicitly or implicitly in confidence. As such, the Commissioner found that subsection 31(2) of FOIP did not apply.
