Mr. Greg Kozak at the Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics Committee

I would just point back to what I stated briefly, that our focus would be mostly upon what impact this would have on the public record. In cases where the harm to reputation diminishes over time, and certainly with deceased individuals, would we want to completely destroy listings or records? De-indexing might be a solid way of achieving that middle ground, of concealing it during a period of sensitivity, with mindfulness that this information is part of the public record and might eventually come back into the public record in a more accessible format.
