Your Right to Know
The Right to Know Public Information Leaflet What is the Right to Know? The Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 gives you the right to request information held by a wide range of public authorities. What information can I obtain? The legislation enables you to get information to help you to understand better how Council works, how we spend public money, and how and why we make our decisions. However, you may not be able to obtain all the information you ask for as the legislation contains exemptions for some types of information which cannot be disclosed, for example, commercial information or personal information about others. You can also get information under the Data Protection Act 1998 which, amongst other things, gives individuals access to their own personal information. What are exemptions? Both the Freedom of Information Act and the Environmental Information Regulations contain a number of exemptions (in the Regulations they are called “exceptions”) allowing Council to withhold information in certain circumstances. However, most of the information held by the Council will not be subject to exemptions. How do I get information held by the Council? A wide range of information is already available to the public either in printed form (for which there may be a charge) or, if you have Internet access, on our website. Details of the information available is listed in our Publication Scheme which is available on Council’s website: www.causewaycoastandglens.gov.uk. A copy of the scheme is also available upon request. If the information you want is not available from the website you can ask for it by writing to Council. -

Craiggore Wind Farm Named One of the 'Best Projects' in Ireland at Irish Wind
CRAIGGORE WIND FARM NAMED ONE OF THE ‘BEST PROJECTS’ IN IRELAND AT IRISH WIND INDUSTRY AWARDS Northern Ireland’s first subsidy-free wind farm, Craiggore Wind Farm, was named as one of the ‘Best Projects’ in Ireland at the second Irish Wind Industry Awards in Dublin on Friday (24th January). The Co. Londonderry wind farm, developed by leading European energy operator ERG and the world's largest independent renewable energy company RES, was praised for its commitment to meet decarbonisation targets and its exemplary stakeholder and community engagement. Organised by the Irish Wind Energy Association, the prestigious awards recognise and celebrate the most original, innovative organisations demonstrating excellence in their fields of the Irish wind energy sector. Craiggore Wind Farm was hailed for its pioneering approach to development – using cutting-edge technology, it features the tallest wind turbine generators in Northern Ireland, which will produce more energy (80 GWh a year) and ensure a site lifespan of 30 years, five years longer than the industry norm. The developers’ collaborative approach to working with the local community was instrumental in getting the project approved. Due to be completed by early 2021, Craiggore Wind Farm will produce carbon free, low cost electricity to meet the demands of around 29,700 homes every year, equivalent of 54% of houses in the Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council, in Northern Ireland. It is estimated that 30% of the costs for the construction of Craiggore Wind Farm will be invested in the region through local supply contracts, including work for haulers, quarries, fencers, foresters, accommodation providers and plant hire firms, worth approximately £8 million to the Northern Irish economy during its construction. -
