Thank you very much for the question.
The acceptance or refusal of a confidentiality request is a reviewable decision on the part of the minister and the exercise of the minister's discretion. There is communication between the government and the company claiming confidentiality--an exploration of what can be released that is not necessarily commercially confidential within the guidelines we use. Then the ministers make a decision. The companies involved have a period within which they can choose to appeal that decision through the judicial system.
