Halifax Regional Police has acknowledged it should not have withheld information about its internal discipline decisions from the CBC, according to an agreement approved recently by a Nova Scotia judge.
early versions of the released information were too heavily redacted to understand some cases
With the signing of that agreement, the legal case between the public broadcaster and the municipal police is over. The Halifax police agreed to pay $1,500 in costs to CBC. "At the same time, our resourcing and systems associated with access to information have not kept up. We are looking internally on how we can support this area better using our current resources as well as what additional supports may help."
Nova Scotians filed hundreds of complaints alleging police misconduct over the last decade. The public never knew what happened to most of them until a CBC investigation found out "I think it's pretty obvious that it's a lot more difficult for the average Nova Scotian to do that than it is for a major government to do that."
