  • Recent decisions and guidance from Ontario’s regulator and how these outcomes are impacting organizations;
  • Emerging issues and trends shaping access requests across the Federal government and province, including the impact of Bill 194, operational pressures, evolving expectations of transparency, and risk areas in request handling;
  • Common challenges such as high-volume or complex requests, narrowing and clarifying scope, managing third-party interests and record-keeping; and
  • Best practices for managing requests efficiently.
