Publisher summary

We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about a claim for damage to his motor vehicle. This is because Mr X has an alternative legal remedy, to pursue a claim of negligence through the courts. Only the courts can decide whether the Council was negligent, and it is therefore reasonable to expect Mr X to seek a remedy in court.
