[QUOTE="Saintjay, post: 1128389, member: 55969"] Really depends on your local authority and how competent they are. My local authority are pretty good. With sufficient evidence they should issue a noise abatement notice, then follow some form of court process. It's easier where they can get a warrant and seize musical equipment or speakers etc. The key to local authorities is to keep pushing and sticking to your guns. If they are social housing / housing association the block would have a dedicated housing officer. It might be worth finding out who they are and contacting them directly. The ASB aspect might be an option open to you. Not sure of the circumstances of the neighbour but age, welfare concerns might open up options of also raising an adult safeguarding concern based on the circumstances. At any point if they are abuse or threatening I'd consider the police. It's a tough call as you still have to live there. Also if it can be heard outside it might fall under section 5 of the public order act. Might be worth a look and getting advice on, mentioning it if it's appropriate. This then would potentially be a police matter as it's a criminal offence. [/QUOTE]
