Office of the Saskatchewan Information and Privacy Commissioner. Steps to Request a Correction of Personal Information or Amendment of Personal Health Information. 29 April 2025. Steps to Request a Correction of Personal Information or Amendment of Personal Health Information Introduction The Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FOIP) and The Local Authority Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (LA FOIP) provide individuals with a right of correction of their personal information. The Health Information Protection Act (HIPA) provides individuals with a right of amendment of their personal health information. In both cases, once the request is made, the government institution, local authority or trustee must consider if the record contains personal information or personal health information and if the record contains an error or omission and address it accordingly. If you have accessed a record containing your personal information or personal health information from a government institution, local authority or trustee that you believe contains errors or omissions, this guide will take you through the following steps to request a correction to your personal information or an amendment of your personal health information. On the next page of this resource is a flow chart outlining each of the steps to requesting a correction of personal information or amendment of personal health information. This resource will provide further guidance on each of the steps in the flow chart.
