Requests for Information on Students and Staff
Following the tragic events of September 11, it is possible that the University will be receiving requests from law enforcement agencies for information on students and staff.
I would remind you that the Secretary-General is named responsible for access to documents and the protection of personal information under Quebec's Act Respecting Access to Documents Held by Public Bodies and the Protection of Personal Information. All requests from law enforcement agencies for nominative information regarding members of the University community are to be addressed in strict accordance to the law. These requests should therefore be forwarded for response to Victoria Lees, Room 608 James Administration Building, 398-3948.
