We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s handling of two linked planning applications. This is because it is unlikely investigation would achieve any worthwhile outcome for Mr X. We have no powers to quash the decisions or make the Council consider the applications again, and it is unlikely we could say the outcome should have been different.
