This includes information placed in the public domain in response to a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act and the Environmental Information Regulations.
This disclosure log lists NI Water’s responses to notable information access requests, both Freedom of Information (FOI) requests and primarily Environmental Information Regulation (EIR) requests, since April 2024.
