This is because the Council has said it will take appropriate action to prevent reoccurrence of fault. Additionally, the Council has offered to waive Mr X’s allotment plot charges for a year as a remedy for injustice and there is therefore no injustice remaining. Nor are there any wider public interest issues to justify investigating.
