About the Canada Energy Regulator

The Canadian Energy Regulator regulates interprovincial and international pipelines and powerlines, offshore renewable energy projects, oil and natural gas operations in frontier areas, and energy trade. The Canadian Energy Regulator’s mission is regulating infrastructure in a way that prevents harm and ensures the safe, reliable, competitive and environmentally sustainable delivery of energy to Canada and the world. We recognize and respect the inherent and constitutionally protected rights of First Nations, Inuit and Métis. We provide energy information and analysis that informs and supports Canada’s transition towards a net zero future. The Minister of Energy and Natural Resources is responsible for this organization.

The Privacy Act

The Privacy Act (the Act) gives individuals the right of access to information about themselves held by the federal government, with certain specific and limited exceptions. The Act protects an individual's privacy by setting out provisions related to the collection, retention, use and disclosure of personal information.

In accordance with section 72 of the Act, the head of every federal institution is required to submit an Annual Report to Parliament on the administration of the Act following the close of each fiscal year. The Annual Reports are then tabled in Parliament pursuant to section 72 of the Act. This report describes how the Canada Energy Regulator (CER) fulfilled its privacy responsibilities during the fiscal year 2023–24.

Organizational Structure

Privacy requests at the CER are processed by the Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Office, which is part of the Open Government Team. The Open Government Team reports to the Vice President (VP), Data and Information Management, who is the primary delegated ATIP Coordinator. As of the end of 2023–24, the CER had four full–time ATIP Officers who allocated their time to activities related to the Act.

Privacy requests are received primarily through two channels; e-mail and the ATIP Online Request Service (AORT). Requests are also occasionally received through the mail. Requests received through the mail are logged into the CER’s records management system by the Records Management team and then forwarded to the ATIP Office.

The CER was not party to any service agreements under section 73.1 of the Privacy Act during the reporting period.

Delegation Order

The CER Act designates the CER Chief Executive Officer (CEO) with the authority to exercise the powers, duties, and functions of the Act. The CEO has historically subdelegated this authority. The ATIP team reports to the VP Data and Information Management to whom the CER CEO’s authority under the Act has been delegated.

The delegation changed from the previous reporting year. Under the current order, four Executive positions have been delegated full authority under the Act. They are the VP, Data and Information Management (primary ATIP Coordinator), the VP, People and Workforce, VP Secretary of the Commission and VP Communications and Engagement (alternate ATIP Coordinators). The Director of Open Government has also been delegated full authority (last resort ATIP Coordinator). The Group Leader ATIP has limited authorization under section 9. From an operational standpoint, granting these authorities to six individuals ensures that files can be reviewed and signed–off without undue delay.

See annex B for a copy of the delegation orders.

Performance 2023–2024

In 2023-2024, the CER received four new requests under the Act and carried forward two outstanding requests from the previous reporting period.

Of the five closed requests to which responses were given during this period, three requests or 60% were completed within the legislated 30–day timeline. The two remaining requests were completed within 180 days and 365 days respectively, and both files required extensions due to the large volume of documents requested.

As of the last day of the reporting period, one request remains outstanding from the 2023-24 fiscal year still within legislated timelines.

Over the last five years the CER has received very few privacy requests. The five requests that were closed this fiscal year resulted in 2460 pages being processed and 574 pages being released.

Privacy Requets

Privacy Requests

Source:
CER – Annual Report on the Privacy Act 2023–2024

Description:
This graph shows the number of requests received during reporting periods from 2019–2020 to 2023–2024. The CER received 4 requests under the Act in 2023-2024, an increase as the CER received 2 requests in the previous reporting period.

The CER did not receive any consultations from other institutions or organizations.

During 2023-24, the CER ATIP Office incurred $40,000.00 in salary costs to administer the Act.

In 2023-24, the CER closed five privacy requests. Of the requests closed during the reporting period, records for 40% were all disclosed and 60% were disclosed in part.

During 2023-24 processing times continued to be hindered by outdated ATIP redaction and case management software. The ATIPXpress software is scheduled to be in place in 2024–25. The new software will improve processing times.

See annex A for further statistical information.

Training and Awareness

Training continues to be an area of focus for the CER ATIP Office. In 2023–24, the ATIP Office delivered targeted training which included onboarding new employees and providing annual refresher training to staff and Offices of Primary Interest.

During 2023-24, the CER continued to require that all CER staff and contractors successfully pass the Access to Information and Privacy Fundamentals – COR502 course offered by the Canada School of Public Service (CSPS). During this reporting period, 44 CER employees and contractors registered for the course with all completing it successfully.

Training also focused heavily on employees’ obligations under the Privacy Act with respect to protection of personal information. There was a decrease in privacy breaches due in part to training and efforts to increase awareness board wide.

In this regard, the CER also reviewed its internal privacy breach procedures and practices to ensure CER staff are aware of their obligations in the event of a privacy breach. The CER uses Treasury Board Secretariat of Canada’ privacy breach management procedures and available suite of tools to assist in managing breaches.

Policies, Guidelines, Procedures and Initiatives

Documentation and training materials on the CER ATIP program were updated and made available through the corporate dashboard, along with links to other materials, such as the Acts, Treasury Board Secretariat of Canada policies and guidance documents, and a range of information management and guidance tools.

The CER continued to examine its ATIP Program and all procedures to enable continuous improvement and to identify opportunities for efficiencies in processing access to information and privacy requests.

Initiatives and Projects to Improve Privacy

During 2023–24, active participation on the departmental Change Advisory Review Board by the Director of Open Government has increased awareness of Privacy Impact Assessments and their purpose.

The software ATIPXpress has been acquired and is scheduled to be in place in 2024–25, to improve processing times and take advantage of de–duplication capabilities.

The CER initiated a project to advance Indigenous reconciliation, which led to the implementation of a new procedure for safeguarding and returning Indigenous knowledge within historical transcripts.

Summary of Key Issues and Actions Taken on Complaints

During 2023–24, there were no new complaints registered with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner. As always, the CER will continue to work closely with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner to resolve any complaints in a timely and efficient manner.

No appeals were made to the Federal Court of Canada during 2023–24.

Monitoring Compliance

For requests received in 2023-24, the CER achieved a completion rate of 60%. The CER processed a total of 2460 pages and disclosed 574 pages to requesters.

The Director Open Government meets weekly with the ATIP Team for full case reviews. This includes discussions regarding technical issues, status/progress updates and the timeliness of processing requests.

These findings are regularly communicated through the Director of Open Government to the ATIP Coordinator.

All requests are tracked in a central repository and are reviewed and updated weekly.

Monthly statistical reports are provided from the ATIP Group Leader to the Director of Open Government responsible for the oversight of the ATIP program.

Material Privacy Breaches

There was one privacy breach investigation completed by the CER’s ATIP Office during 2023–24. The incident involved an email containing personal information sent to a wrong address. It was determined to be non-material breach. A notice of impact was sent to the individual and shared with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.

The ATIP Office applied the Treasury Board Secretariat of Canada’s privacy breach management procedures and worked with the relevant Office of Primary Interest and ATIP Coordinator to identify and implement administrative measures to mitigate the potential for future incidents. This has helped the CER improve its handling and classification of personal information, as well as its information management practices.

Privacy Impact Assessments

During the 2023-24 reporting period, no privacy impact assessments were completed.

The CER posts summaries of completed privacy impact assessments on the web and forwards copies of completed assessment reports to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner, Privacy Impact Assessment Summaries.

Public Interest Disclosures

The CER did not disclose any personal information under paragraphs 8(2)(e) or (m) of the Privacy Act.
