  • we reasonably believe that giving access would pose a serious threat to the life, health, or safety of any individual, or to public health or public safety;

  • the request for access is frivolous or vexatious;

  • the information relates to existing or anticipated legal proceedings and the information would not be accessible in normal discovery procedures;

  • giving access would be likely to prejudice one or more enforcement related activities conducted by, or on behalf of, an enforcement body; or

  • giving access would reveal evaluative information generated within us in connection with a commercially sensitive decision-making process. 

If we refuse access to the information or correcting such information, written notice will be provided to you setting out:
