Dear All,
It suddenly struck me that publication of the complainants names and
addresses of a proposed Planning Application prior to the Committee meeting
may be a breach of either/both the DP Act and Privacy Act but in any event
it seems wrong for the Complainants details to be made public at all.
i.e. I would not wish my neighbor to know I had opposed his application to
turn his back garden into a scrap metal yard!
Does any other authority edit these details out prior to publication?
Does anyone concur that it does not seem correct?
Regards
Arthur Howell
DP Officer
