The Ombudsman reviewed a closed meeting held by council for the Municipality of Temagami to discuss a harassment complaint. The meeting was closed under the personal matters exception. During the meeting, council was informed that a harassment complaint was received and would be referred to an external investigator. No details about the nature of the complaint or the identity of the complainant was discussed. Some council members knew the identity of the complainant. The Ombudsman found that the information discussed did not include any personal information of identifiable individuals and it was not reasonable to expect that the individuals involved in the complaint would be identifiable if council’s discussion, in the manner it was conducted, had been held in public. Therefore, the discussion did not fit within the personal matters exception.
