The chairman of the Access for Ontarians with Disabilities Alliance says the case his group brought forward to the privacy commission raised questions about the provincial government's commitment to transparency and to accessibility as a whole.
The commission says the advocacy group trying to get information on accessibility law compliance was significantly overcharged by the government.
The alliance says it tried to get the 42-hundred-dollar fee waived, but the government enlisted five lawyers to uphold the charge.
The commission ordered the government to provide much of the information in the request free of charge and knocked the fee for other information down to 750 dollars.
