Dear Sir/Madam,

REQUEST FOR ACCESS TO INFORMATION

With reference to your request for information held by Causeway Coast and
Glens Borough Council located in Northern Ireland under the above
legislation.  

Response:

The Council has undertaken a search of its records and failed to locate
any relevant records to your request based on the information you have
provided.  Accordingly Council can confirm that it does not hold the
information to which you seek access. 

Under Section 16 of the Freedom of Information Act which places a duty on
public authorities “to provide advice and assistance” we would advise you
that this is because local authorities in Northern Ireland do not have
legislative responsibility for this area of  responsibility.  Local
authorities are not responsible for the following functions: Education,
personal social services, health, roads, public housing, fire service,
police service, trading standards, drainage water, sewerage, libraries,
street lighting, collection of rates, transport, community safety, urban
regeneration.  See: [1]https://www.niwater.com/home

Ireland and other statutory partners please refer to Northern Ireland’s
one stop government portal: [3]NIDirect. 

If you have any queries in relation to your request for access to
information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Individuals are free to use any information supplied, where the Council is
the copyright owner of the information, for their own use, including for
non-commercial research purposes. The information may also be used for the
purposes of news reporting. However, any other type of re-use, such as:
copying, publishing, distributing and transmitting the Information;
adapting the Information; exploiting the Information commercially for
example, by combining it with other Information, or by including it in
your own commercial product or application, will be subject to the
copyright and re-use conditions under the Open Government Licence.

If you are dissatisfied with how the Council handled your request for
information, you have the right to request that the Council formally
review this decision.  If you wish to do so, please write within 40
working days to the:

you can seek an independent review from the Information Commission.  A
request for an independent review should be made in writing to:
Information Commissioner at ICO, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow,
Cheshire, SK9 5AF.  The Commissioner has indicated that a review will not
be undertaken unless the Council has first had an opportunity to
reconsider its decision.
