Withdrawing or amending notices
The council may withdraw the notice of intent or a final notice or reduce the amount of civil penalty at any time. This is done by giving notice in writing to the person on whom the notice was served.
Where a civil penalty has been withdrawn, and there is a public interest in doing so, the council can still pursue a prosecution against the landlord for the conduct for which the penalty was originally imposed. Each case will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
