you. The officer who received the complaint tried to contact the customer who made it on
several occasions but was unable to do so and as such we were unable to verify the complaint.
The next complaint received was then on 18/05/14 as stated in my original response.

We did not receive any further complaints after June 2014 in regard to the Man Building and
therefore as far as we were aware the matter had been resolved.

A Noise Abatement Notice was not served on the squatters as we would not have been able to
verify any names given, if indeed they would have given a name and it would have been
unenforceable as it is extremely unlikely that we would have been able to take anybody to court
who was squatting. The line taken was to pursue the owners of the building who then needed to
evict the squatters and secure the premises, which they did; serving a Noise Abatement Notice
would have had no effect on the owners as they were already taking the necessary steps to stop
the problem.

Dear Ned Johnson

I am writing this email due to a FOI request I put in some time ago.

It has come to my attention that some of the information you have given me in incorrect and was
wondering if you could comment on this.

In my FOI request you said that Crown Road information started on the 18/5/2014, but I have
found news paper information that this started much earlier then this.

I have a news paper that is dated the 25/04/2014 which was printed after a 15 hour rave took
place there on the 19/04/2014, which is much earlier then the 18/05/2014 as the date you gave me
that this started.
