Request

I am writing to request data held by Rushcliffe Borough Council on building control activities in your area under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. Please could you provide the following data for each financial year from 2015/16 to 2025/26:

  1. Initial Notices from Approved Inspectors / Registered Building Control Approvers. The number of Initial Notices received and accepted by the council in each year, broken down by:
    • Building type, using whatever categorisation is held in your case management system
    • New build vs alteration/extension/refurbishment
    • The identity of the Approved Inspector/RBCA named on each notice, where held
  2. Lapsed Initial Notices. The number of Initial Notices that lapsed or were cancelled in each year, and where held, the identity of the Approved Inspector/RBCA named on the original notice.
  3. Local Authority Building Control Applications. The number of building control applications received by the council in each year, broken down by:
    • Application type: Full Plans (FP), Building Notice (BN), Regularisation
    • Building type, using whatever categorisation is held in your case management system
    • New build vs alteration/extension/refurbishment
  4. Performance. Any performance data held by the council relating to the Building Control Service, including but not limited to average application processing times, time to first site inspection, or any metrics reported internally or to committee.

Please provide the data in whatever format is most convenient for you. If providing the full dataset from 2015/16 would exceed the cost limit under Section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act, please provide data from 2019/20 onwards as a minimum, prioritising sections 1 and 3 above.
