New Forest District Council (25 001 930)
Statement Upheld Antisocial behaviour 16-Jan-2026
Summary: Ms X and Mr Y complained the Council failed to take sufficient action to deal with their neighbour keeping animals at their home.

The Council has agreed to apologise to Ms X and Mr Y, make a payment to them and implement a service improvement.

Birmingham City Council (25 011 705)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Antisocial behaviour 13-Jan-2026
Summary: We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about how the Council has responded to her concerns about large trees in a neighbouring garden, and how it has dealt with her complaint. Ms X’s complaint about the Council up to 2023 is late and there are no good reasons for us to investigate it now. Her complaint about more recent events is premature for us to investigate. We also cannot achieve the outcome Ms X seeks.
