Despite section 88 of the Act respecting Access to documents held by public bodies and the Protection of personal information (chapter A-2.1), the director of a correctional facility or the chair of the parole board shall communicate the representations of the person who is a victim to an offender who makes a request for them in writing, unless there is reasonable cause to believe that the disclosure would compromise the safety of the person who is a victim or another person. Despite section 53 of that Act, the chair of the parole board shall also communicate the representations to the director of the correctional facility where the offender they concern is confined.
