The claimant, a tenant of the respondent had a troublesome neighbour. Though she reported the matter to the police she was afraid to lay a formal complaint. The respondent said it was unable to rehouse her as homeless in the absence of such a complaint. The County Court judge allowed her appeal and quashed the review. The Council appealed.
Held: The appeal failed.
