- Summary
-
We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council breaching the terms of its contract with him regarding its leasing of his property, and how it dealt with his complaint. The lease dispute is a legal matter which it would not be unreasonable for Mr X to take to court. We do not investigate councils’ correspondence and complaint‑handling where we are not investigating the core issue giving rise to the complaint.
