Ards and North Down Borough Council

The complainant requested information from Ards and North Down Borough Council (“the Council”) in the form of Building Control Plans regarding a neighbouring property. The Council refused the request for information and cited Regulation 13 of the EIR to do so. The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council was entitled to apply Regulation 13(1) of the EIR to withhold the requested information. The Commissioner does not require the Council to take any further action in this matter.
