Horsham District Council (25 011 602)

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 13-Jan-2026

Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s administration of a community infrastructure levy charge. Mr X has had rights of appeal it would be reasonable to use against the Council’s calculation, the deemed commencement date and a surcharge imposed. Any matters of alleged unlawfulness are ones only a court could determine, and it would be reasonable to seek any finding of unlawfulness by going to court.

London Borough of Camden (25 011 658)

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 07-Jan-2026

Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s failure to consider Ms X’s reports of noise nuisance. The Council has confirmed it has asked its Environmental Health Team to consider the matter. Therefore further investigation will not lead to a different outcome. Also we cannot achieve the outcome Ms X is seeking.

Mid Suffolk District Council (24 020 511)

Statement Upheld Other 05-Jan-2026

Summary: We found fault on Mr Y’s complaint about the Council’s delay posting him a copy of an application form for a Certificate of Lawful Use and Existing Development. It also failed to deal with his initial complaint according to its complaints procedure. The apologies the Council gave him remedied any injustice caused. There was no fault on his remaining complaints.

Also, we do not consider Mr X has suffered a significant personal injustice because his neighbour was not told about the application. Finally we cannot require the Council to withdraw its approval or discipline officers.
