What are the reasons for not disclosing information?
Certain information may not be disclosed because it falls within the PCP’s exceptions to presumed disclosure. Examples include information arising out of ADB’s deliberative or decision making process, business proprietary information, and staff information of a personal nature, such as medical files. Under the new PCP, ADB takes a proactive approach to its external relations and disclosure of information, working together with its government partners to decide on which information if any, meets strict confidentiality criteria.
