Former-official status

No match with a former member of council, councillor staff or City staff. A match appears only when a decision model comparing the two records scores it 0.95 or higher.

Disclosure timeliness

Lobbyists must record a communication within 3 days. lobbyTO measures the gap between a communication's date and the first daily snapshot of the registry export in which it appears. The export refreshes daily, so a 1-day gap is expected.

Measurement in progress. Daily snapshots began on 4 October 2026 (5 days of snapshots so far); results appear after 6 months of snapshots, from 4 April 2027. Communications dated before the first snapshot are not measured.
