Annual report to Parliament 2018-2019: Privacy Act
Table of contents
Introduction
I. Introduction
The purpose of the Privacy Act (PA) is to protect the personal information of individuals under the responsibility and control of federal institutions, and to provide individuals with a right of access to that information.
This report reflects privacy activities of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC) from April 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019.
This report, submitted to Parliament pursuant to section 72 of the PA, describes the activities of CIRNAC that support compliance with privacy legislation. The report details the activities and accomplishments of CIRNAC's Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Directorate, including highlights such as:
- The creation of a Privacy/Policy team; and
- Increased training initiatives to improve departmental ATIP capacity and awareness.
Creation of Two New Departments
In August 2017, the Prime Minister announced the dissolution of Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada and the establishment of two new departments to better meet the needs and aspirations of First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples. At that time, he named two Ministers to lead these new departments: a Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs and a Minister of Indigenous Services Canada.
The ATIP office provided shared services support for CIRNAC and Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the departments.
Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada's Mandate
The Department of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs will accelerate the work that had already begun to renew the nation-to-nation, Inuit-Crown, and government-to-government relationship between Canada and Indigenous People. The Department will also modernize our institutional structure and governance so that First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples can build capacity that supports implementation of their vision of self-determination.
The new relationship must be based on the recognition of rights, respect, co-operation, and partnership. The Department will build on the progress that has been made already, including the establishment of rights and recognition tables across the country, the creation of bilateral mechanism with National Indigenous Organizations to make progress on shared priorities, and the progress made across government on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Calls to Action.
CIRNAC is one of the two federal departments that are primarily responsible for meeting the Government of Canada's obligations and commitments to First Nations, Inuit and Métis, and for fulfilling the federal government's constitutional responsibilities in the North. CIRNAC's overall mandate and wide-ranging responsibilities are shaped by centuries of history and unique demographic and geographic challenges. The mandate is derived from the Constitution Act 1982, the Indian Act, the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development Act, territorial Acts, treaties, comprehensive claims and self-government agreements, as well as various other statutes affecting Indigenous Peoples and the North.
Most of the Department's programs, representing a majority of its spending, are delivered through partnerships with First Nation and Indigenous communities and federal-provincial or federal-territorial agreements. CIRNAC also works with urban Indigenous people, Métis and Non-Status Indians (many of whom live in rural areas).
II. Organization
ATIP Directorate at CIRNAC
The Access to Information and Privacy Directorate is responsible for the administration of requests made under the ATIA andthe PA. It was established within the Corporate Secretariat and reports to the Corporate Secretary, who is directly accountable to the Deputy Head and is a member of the CIRNAC Senior Management Team. The Directorate also coordinates and implements policies, guidelines and procedures to ensure departmental compliance with the ATIA and PA. Workshop presentations, training courses and awareness sessions designed to increase access to information and privacy capacity across the Department are also provided by the ATIP Directorate.
Under a shared service MOU, all ATIP analysts processed requests for both CIRNAC and ISC. They processed requests of varying volume and complexity based on their classification level. They also provide critical privacy advice for new initiatives, resulting in privacy protection in departmental programs. Policies and procedures continue to be established to ensure that privacy is considered throughout the life cycle of CIRNAC's programs and that informed policy decisions are made concerning the collection, sharing and/or use of personal information.
The ATIP Directorate provides advice and guidance to the Department on a number of topics:
- The application of the Access to Information Act (ATIA) and PA;
- The release of sensitive or protected information to the public;
- Departmental Privacy Impact Assessments (PIAs);
- Permissible disclosures of personal information pursuant to subsection 8(2) of the PA;
- Appropriate PA Statements on Data Collection Instruments (DCIs), i.e. forms, surveys, etc.;
- Updates to Info Source and the preparation and registration of Personal Information Banks (PIBs) and their related Classes of Records;
- Protocols surrounding privacy breaches;
- Education and awareness of access to information and privacy issues throughout the Department; and,
- Privacy advice in MOU.
The Intake Team triages and coordinates the receipt of requests for information under the control of the Department made pursuant to the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act. The Operations Team ensures that a response is provided within the legislated timeframe (30 days). All requests are monitored using the tracking system Access Pro Case Management. To do so, ATIP analysts work closely with the relevant program areas in order to ensure that all responsive documents are provided and to ensure that the information contained within those documents is treated in accordance with the Acts to allow for government records to be safely disclosed to the Canadian public. The Privacy/Policy team is available to provide expert advice, maintain and monitor privacy risks as well as support ISC with the creation of privacy policy training.
In addition to the ATIP Directorate, each of the sectors and regional offices of CIRNAC are ATIP Liaison Officers (ALOs) who receive callouts from the ATIP Directorate and subsequently task the requests as appropriate to areas within their sector. ALOs plays a crucial role in ensuring requests are clear to the record retrievers and that the appropriate records, impact statements and approvals are obtained and communicated to ATIP Directorate officials within the designated time allowances.
