This case is about who can bring a complaint of statutory nuisance in respect of premises. Such a claim must be, and can only be ‘made by any person on the ground that he is aggrieved by the existence of a statutory nuisance’. (section 82(1) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (the 1990 Act)). The appellant claims that she fits that description and has standing to complain of statutory nuisance against the respondents. The magistrates in Sunderland decided otherwise. She appeals against that decision.
