Northern Ireland Water

The complainant requested a copy of the combined sewer system/road drainage hydraulic modelling for a specific location. Northern Ireland Water (NI Water) withheld the information under regulation 12(5)(a) (public safety) of the EIR. In its internal review NI Water also sought to rely on regulation 13 (personal data) and regulation 12(5)(e) (commercial or industrial information). During the Commissioner’s investigation NI Water also sought to rely on regulation 12(5)(b) to withhold the information. The Commissioner’s decision is that NI Water has correctly applied regulation 12(5)(a) to the request. The Commissioner does not require any steps to be taken.

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

Decision notice: 224320
