  • London Borough of Haringey (24 016 099)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Council tax 08-Jan-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about a Council tax discount because there is a right of appeal to a Valuation Tribunal.

  • Bracknell Forest Council (24 013 679)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Refuse and recycling 08-Jan-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint that the Council wrongly emptied his brown bin of personal items including two pressure washers and a gas bottle. This is because there is not enough evidence to show the Council took the items and if Mr X believes he is entitled to compensation it would be reasonable for him to make a claim against it at court.

  • Cornwall Council (24 013 726)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Refuse and recycling 08-Jan-2025

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Building control 08-Jan-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s handling of a building control matter. This is because the substantive issue concerns a dispute over whether Mr X’s building work complies with the Building Regulations and it would be reasonable for Mr X to take this to the Planning Inspector.

  • Essex County Council (24 013 865)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 08-Jan-2025

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Child protection 08-Jan-2025

    Summary: We cannot investigate Miss X’s complaint about the Council’s actions in its child protection involvement with her family because it lies outside our jurisdiction.
