Statement Closed after initial enquiries Building control 15-Jan-2026

Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s consideration of Ms X’s reports of building control and noise concerns at her neighbour’s property. Her complaints are too late, and we have seen no reason why she could not have complained to us much sooner. Also, I have not seen enough evidence of fault in the way the Council considered her report of unprofessional conduct by officers to justify an investigation on this point.
