Overview

The Directory of Records (DOR) provides general descriptions of records covered by the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FIPPA).

Directory of Records

The DOR describes what records are created and maintained by ministries, which can assist you when preparing Freedom of Information requests for records. Not all records created by ministries are described within this directory.

A record of information can be:

  • in printed form
  • on film
  • electronic (digital records)

Freedom of Information requests

Some records may already be available to you without making a Freedom of Information request under FIPPA. You can contact the applicable  to find out if you can access the information without submitting a formal request.

Other FIPPA institutions must also make information about their records available, but do so independently, including:

  • hospitals
  • universities
  • some provincial agencies
  • municipal institutions

Learn how to make a Freedom of Information request.
