Usage Considerations

Government departments, agencies, boards and commissions (provincial government bodies) routinely release information to the public. The FOIP Act is used only when information is not available through regular channels. Statistical reports of FOIP requests are submitted to the Policy and Governance branch of Service Alberta by all ministries including the Executive Council, the Legislative Assembly Office, the Office of the Auditor General, the Ombudsman, the Office of the Chief Electoral Officer, the Ethics Commissioner, the Information and Privacy Commissioner, and agencies, boards, and commissions designated in the FOIP Regulation. FOIP requests are tracked manually or electronically by each public body. Statistics are compiled and reported on the fiscal year, which runs from April 1 to March 31 of the following year.
