North Devon District Council (25 016 456)

Durham County Council (25 014 264)

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Planning applications 16-Jan-2026

Summary: We will not investigate Mr and Mrs X’s complaint about the Council’s handling of their neighbour’s planning application. This is because the complaint is late and it would have been reasonable for them to complain about it sooner. We will not investigate Mr and Mrs X’s complaint about the Council’s failure to address their concerns about their neighbour’s building work as we cannot say this caused the injustice they claim. We cannot therefore achieve any worthwhile outcome by investigating this issue further.

West Suffolk Council (25 022 712)

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Planning applications 16-Jan-2026

This is because Mr X has already used his legal rights to appeal to the Planning Inspector on the substantive matters, we have partly considered Mr X’s complaints already and it is not a good use of public funds to look at side issues in isolation from the substantive matters.
