We confirm, on the reviewer's instruction, that her decision not to investigate further is final.
“She has asked me to confirm that her decision not to investigate further was final.”
I ask the reviewer to reconsider, on the limited basis of HM Land Registry's own procedure, three unanswered factual questions about notice to occupiers before 1982–83 registration, the missing 1969 root deed, and the basis for the 1987 amalgamation; if she will not reconsider, I ask for written confirmation that her decision is final so I can pursue an Ombudsman referral.
“please confirm in writing that her decision of 9 October 2026 is final”

We note you may not have received our letter of 9 October 2026 and resend it attached to this email.
I ask HM Land Registry's reviewer to confirm whether four specific points form part of the live investigation: the missing 1969 root deed, notice given to occupiers in 1982–83, the legal basis for the 1987 amalgamation during live Court of Appeal proceedings, and whether the woodland's inclusion could be a mistake under the Land Registration Act 2002.
“Please confirm these points form part of the live investigation and state the exact start date of the ICR six-month period”

I set out six numbered points for the Independent Complaints Reviewer about titles WA231076 and WA240304, including a decision made before files were examined, a missing root-of-title document, and three conflicting closure dates, asking for written answers and record preservation.
“A final complaint decision cannot properly rest on documents that had not yet been identified.”

I ask the Independent Complaints Reviewer to examine how HM Land Registry handled my complaint about titles WA231076, WA240304 and WA735527 at Great House Farm, arguing it left key documentary questions about the family's ownership unanswered.
“I am asking it to review whether HM Land Registry properly investigated and answered the complaint put before it”
