Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council

The complainant has requested information from Antrim & Newtownabbey Borough Council (‘the Council’) in relation to a pig farm construction site within the Council’s area.  The Council disclosed some of the requested information, stated that it did not hold some of the information, and refused to disclose the remainder, citing regulation 12(5)(b) of the EIR as a basis for non-disclosure.  The Commissioner’s decision is that the Council has correctly applied regulation 12(5)(b) of the EIR to the information withheld under that regulation and that it holds no further information within the scope of the complainant’s request apart from that which it has already disclosed to the complainant.  Therefore, the Commissioner requires no steps to be taken.

EIR 12(4)(a): Complaint not upheld EIR 12(5)(b): Complaint not upheld

Decision notice: fer0702636
