Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy is

  1. Federal

  2. Provincial

  3. Municipal

  4. International

The correct answer is: Provincial

The Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FIPPA) falls under the provincial jurisdiction of Ontario, Canada. This Act provides access to most records under the control of provincial and local government organizations and protects personal information held by government organizations. Provincial jurisdiction means that it is managed and maintained by the province's governing body. The Act's purpose is to ensure transparency and accountability in Ontario's public sector and safeguard individual privacy rights. FIPPA is Ontario specific, meaning it's not a federal, municipal, or international policy. For these reasons, provincial is the correct answer.
