Exemptions based on an injury test provide for the denial of access to requested information if disclosure "could reasonably be expected to be injurious" to the interest specified in the exemption. "Injury" in this context means having a detrimental effect. The fact that the disclosure could result in an administrative change in a government institution is not sufficient to satisfy an injury test. It must be possible to identify an actual detrimental effect on the interest specified in the exemption. 2, record 1, English, - injury%20test
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
In the context of an access to information or personal information request, the injury test is used to determine whether the information requested is covered by an exemption because its disclosure would likely result in harm to the interest protected by the exemption. 3, record 1, English, - injury%20test

... one who cuts down a tree in the vicinity of his boundary in such a manner that it will in all probability fall on his own land, commits but an accidental trespass, if it crashes onto his neighbour's. The unauthorized entry, which is the injurious effect of his activity, was neither intended nor reasonably to the anticipated, and he is consequently absolved now that such an accidental trespass is no longer actionable. 2, record 2, English, - accidental%20trespass
