If you've seen something but are not sure you want to report it

People often feel nervous of coming forward and reporting malpractices that they have witnessed. These issues affect everybody and may cost the Royal Borough and the taxpayer money.

It benefit all residents of the Royal Borough if these illegal activities are identified and stopped as soon as possible.

Malicious reports

Reports made with malicious intent cause unnecessary harm to those accused. They also waste time and money that could be spent investigating genuine reports.

Do not make a report against somebody just to settle a personal grudge.
