Dear S. Dyos,
Thank you for your request for clarification for my FOI request. I
would confirm that my request is for complaints received by the
authority for noise nuisance arising from amplified music or
speech, pets or dogs, behavioural noise and mechanical noise.
Further information was requested for Statutory nuisance found -
warning letter issued and statutory nuisance found, noise abatement
