In October 2021, the Ombudsman received a complaint that a delay by the Department of Education in informing the parents of students at Hidden Valley Elementary School about allegations of sexualized abuse of a student by a staff member was unfair because they had no critical opportunity to talk to their children and provide or seek any necessary supports in a timely manner. The complainant also believed that the delay resulted in other alleged child victims not receiving the supports they needed in a timely manner.

This court decision was rendered in regard to an investigation involving the Government of Yukon, the Department of Health and Social Services, specifically the Family and Children's Services Branch (FCS). In the course of the investigation, issues arose regarding the Ombudsman's power to compel full disclosure of information and documents from FCS. The Ombudsman petitioned the Court and sought three declarations related to its jurisdiction to investigate matters under the Ombudsman Act. The Government of Yukon, the Department of Health and Social Services and FCS opposed the petition.

The Ombudsman's office found unfairness in the Department of Energy Mines and Resources’ lot enlargement policy after investigating a complaint from a Yukoner. The Ombudsman made four recommendations, which were accepted by the authority.

On April 11, 2022, the Justice opined that the Human Rights Commission is under the jurisdiction of the Ombudsman.
