The information you provide in your request will be treated in a confidential manner and will be communicated only to those authorized to handle your request.
Your request must be made in writing to the designated person in the organization and must be sufficiently precise in order to facilitate the retrieval of the document and thus enabling them to provide you with an answer. In order to add specificity to your request, we suggest that you mention the title of the document, the name of the author or the subject matter.
The form for requesting access to documents, whose use is optional, is available to individuals via the online Pivot citizen portal.
