Buckinghamshire Council (25 014 004)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 24-Feb-2026
Summary: We will not investigate Mr Y’s complaint about the Council’s handling of his skip licence applications and his complaint about the matter.

It is not a good use of public resources to investigate complaints about complaint procedures alone.

Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about how the Council handled Mr X’s concerns about littering and street cleanliness. The claimed injustice is not significant enough to warrant our involvement. In any case, further investigation by us would not lead to a different outcome.
-
London Borough of Barking & Dagenham (25 016 488)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 13-Feb-2026
Summary: We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about the Council taking too long to remove graffiti she reported. This is because we could not add to the response the Council has already provided via its own investigation of the matter. Also, the matter complained about has not caused Ms X a significant personal injustice which is so serious that it warrants a further investigation by this office.
-

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 12-Feb-2026
Summary: We will not exercise discretion to investigate this complaint about the drainage board’s charges for drainage services. This complaint was received outside the normal 12-month period for investigating complaints. There is no evidence to suggest that Mr X could not have complained to us sooner.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 12-Feb-2026

Kent County Council (25 011 772)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 05-Feb-2026
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s interaction with Ms X at a recycling centre. We could not add anything to the investigation the Council has already carried out, we cannot achieve the outcome that Ms X wants, and the Information Commissioner is better placed to consider and decide complaints about access to information.
