38: Territorial authority must give copy of project information memorandum in certain circumstances

You could also call this:

“The city council must share information they receive with the people who originally gave it to them.”

When a territorial authority gets information from a network utility operator or a statutory authority, they might use this information in a project information memorandum. If they do this, the territorial authority has to give a copy of the project information memorandum back to the operator or authority that gave them the original information. This helps keep everyone informed about how their information is being used.
