Norfolk County Council (26 018 120)

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Parking and other penalties 29-Sep-2026

Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about a Penalty Charge Notice for a traffic contravention. There is no worthwhile outcome achievable. Nor will we investigate a separate complaint about the Council’s continued use of a traffic enforcement camera. Any fault alleged by Mr X here has not caused him an injustice.

London Borough of Newham (26 018 140)

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Parking and other penalties 29-Sep-2026

Summary: We cannot investigate this complaint about the Council’s handling of a court order and refusal to repay Miss X’s enforcement agent and court fees.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Street furniture and lighting 28-Sep-2026

Kent County Council (26 006 402)

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Traffic management 28-Sep-2026

Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about how the Council managed traffic diverted by nearby roadworks, and its complaint responses. There is insufficient significant injustice to Mr X caused by the matters complained of to justify us investigating. There is not enough evidence that Council fault caused drivers to speed on his road. There is not enough significant injustice to Mr X from the Council’s complaint replies to justify us investigating that issue.
