Please note that we cannot advise you about any private compensation claims that you may consider making against a business.
All complaints are confidential and our aim is to investigate and resolve your complaint in an efficient and thorough manner. A named officer who is competent to investigate health and safety complaints will investigate the complaint on your behalf.
Where Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council is not the appropriate enforcing authority, we will refer the complaint on your behalf and contact you to inform you of the actions taken.
