Complaint details

Provide as much detail as possible

Information provided will be used for the purposes of complaint investigation. All data will be held securely and processed in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. To investigate a complaint, the council might share the customer’s name and contact details and details of the complaint with other services in the council, and to third party contractors providing council services, so that a response can be made. If the complainant is escalated to the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman (LGSCO) and/or the Housing Ombudsman (HO) to investigate the council may share information with them, however this will always be limited to what is required for the investigation. The minimum retention period for complaints data is six years, but may be longer where legislation demands this. Further details can be found on our privacy notice.
