• We have investigated this report and assessed the issue is not the responsibility of Bromley Council. This could be because the location or asset is private property, an unadopted road or beyond the maintained extent of a road. We are unable to progress this report further and this report will be closed. Please note that Bromley do not hold records of private ownership but if the information has been registered, the ownership of private land may be found via a land registry search: https://www.gov.uk/ government/ organisations/ land-registry

  State changed to: No further action

• Bromley council have an obligation to maintain standards especially when it’s been flagged as a pest control problem, therefore should make contact with the owner of the HMO as this is registered as a business as well as a dwelling for its customers/residents Surly this is not the perception Bromley want for their borough dispute not owning the land!?

• Bromley council should act, as this both poses a health risk as it’s a used soiled mattress and is in close proximity of family homes and also provides a habitat for vermin. Bromley council have an obligation to act on this health risk
