While the clause will not take away anyone’s right to complain, it is intended to inform the way noise complaints are viewed by local councils and other authorities including in any sort of mediation.The minister for music and the night-time economy, John Graham, said the clause should reduce conflict between established venues and new neighbours, as well as give councils more tools to regulate their own areas.
“We actually have a much better relationship with our neighbours now, because the Sep framework forces vexatious complainants out of the shadows to come and deal with us face to face and solve the problem together,” he said.
