Background
3. In the evening of 12 July 2017, I met with one of the
Council’s in-house legal surveyors, Mr Neville Gray with
regards to an ongoing low water pressure issue. Mr Gray
attended my property (Flat 117) at 11am on the day and
agreed that the water pressure was not adequate. An attempt
was made to gain access to the two flats immediately below,

see that he was not comfortable with the situation, and he
backed off. He seemed to be very vocal with an aggressive
manner, which was intimidating; at this point Mr Gray
called for the police to attend.
6. I wish to add that on a previous visit to the property on 26
January 2017, to resolve the low water pressure, the
Defendant had informed me that he was restricting the
supply and stated: you will not solve the problem as I am
restricting their water supply’. This was mentioned to me in
