Is the data that FixMyStreet uses easily accessible anywhere?

Boundary-Line was released as part of the OS OpenData on 1st April. As I said previously, I wrote some sample code that imports some of Boundary-Line that should be easy to build on at
    http://github.com/dracos/opendata-boundaryline

I just added 10 lines of code to do point -> council lookup
e.g. http://boundaryline.dracos.vm.bytemark.co.uk/400000,300000

diff here:
http://github.com/dracos/opendata-boundaryline/commit/439f57f583becdc1c9f0ad756393978cb7f2e43e

That's not an official service, or a lookup, that's just an example of how you can make your own.

What I'm actually doing is trying to determine which local authority is responsible for planning permission for any particular listed building, the location of which is officially defined by OS grid reference rather than an address
