Pendle Borough Council (24 005 276)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Enforcement 02-Sep-2024
Summary: We will not investigate Mr and Mrs X’s complaint about the Council not using planning enforcement powers against a neighbour’s garden structures, not applying the General Permitted Development Order (GPDO) and Building Regulations requirements correctly, not visiting their property when considering the matter, and how it dealt with the complaint. There is not enough evidence of fault in the Council’s planning enforcement process, nor in it not visiting their property, to warrant us investigating. Even if there has been fault in the Council’s processes, there is insufficient significant personal injustice to Mr and Mrs X caused by the matters complained of to justify investigating. We do not investigate council complaint‑handling when not investigating the core issues giving rise to the complaint.

London Borough of Islington (24 005 416)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Leisure and culture 02-Sep-2024
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s failure to implement recommendations from a noise survey. The Council has considered the recommendations to reduce the noise. However, it has advised it does not have the finances available to implement them. Further investigation will not lead to a different outcome, and we cannot require the Council to implement the recommendations.
