The commissioner is urging justice officials to consider prosecuting a former government employee who was found to have inappropriately accessed personal information as part of an alleged illegal immigration scheme.
The report said a complainant told the ministry the third party sought money in exchange for approval of their immigration application.He said a prosecution would signal to government employees that it’s not OK to snoop and access private information.
Kruzeniski said it’s his understanding Saskatchewan has not historically charged a person for violating someone’s privacy under freedom of information and privacy legislation.Article contentThe report indicated that the ministry initially became aware of suspicious activity in April 2022, when a client complained the employee had inappropriately accessed their file, shared it with a third party and sought money.
The ministry says another complaint was made in June 2022, which had spurred an in-depth investigation. Kruzeniski’s report noted the employee had been investigated in 2020 for similar reasons. However, allegations during the 2020 investigation were not substantiated, the ministry said.“We have our suspicions that the employee or a known associate may have had criminal intent, but as that investigation is ongoing at this time, we cannot state that with sense of certainty,” it said in the report.
He said the privacy department should have been notified sooner, which could have allowed affected clients to be made aware earlier.
