MLA Michelle Mungall asks why BC Lotto Corp withheld important documents from FOI request

If the review was comprehensive, they would have known that it wasn't just one record, but there was a second record missing from the BCLC's FOI response package. It was an important e-mail sent by Mr. Graydon on December 10, 2013. But guess what. It was deleted — big surprise. In the usual, roundabout way of getting to the information in that e-mail from this government, we learned that Mr. Graydon was lobbying an ADM in the Ministry of Finance to increase the profits made by casinos on table games. Now what we see here is that BCLC was happy to provide the opposition with the correspondence we requested just as long as it didn't contradict what the government was saying about the issue. We know that they aren't supposed to do that. We know that. The minister is right to say that. But they are doing it. So minister, why are they doing that?
