Can the salary information of institution employees be released in response to a FOIP request?
• Not entirely. Information about an officer or employee’s classification, salary range and discretionary benefits would have to be disclosed. This disclosure would not be seen as an unreasonable invasion of personal privacy (section 17(2)(e)). • Specific salary information for senior officials of institutions is disclosed to government as required information in their financial statements. The financial statements are then published in Volume 4 of the government’s Public Accounts.
