An institution must communicate to the Minister, at the Minister’s request and in the form and within the time he determines, any statement, statistics, report and other information that he requires with regard to its human resources, including the professionals practising their profession within the institution, students and trainees, and that is necessary for the exercise of his functions.

Where the information required by the Minister in accordance with the first paragraph allows a personnel member of the institution or another person referred to in that paragraph to be identified, the information may be communicated only if the delegated manager of government digital data of the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux referred to in subparagraph 9.2 of the first paragraph of section 10.1 of the Act respecting the governance and management of the information resources of public bodies and government enterprises (chapter G-1.03) authorizes its communication.

In order to obtain the manager’s authorization, the Minister must submit a written request to the manager.

Information communicated under this section must not allow a user of the institution to be identified.

This section applies to a private institution not under agreement only if the institution is accredited for the purposes of subsidies in accordance with the provisions of Chapter III of Title II of Part III and only to the extent that the information is necessary for the purposes of those provisions.

This section applies despite section 68 of the Act respecting Access to documents held by public bodies and the Protection of personal information (chapter A-2.1).
