Great House Farm — Independent Review Register

Review controls · Updated 12 October 2026

Allegations, documentary anomalies and unanswered requests are not findings of fraud, concealment, discrimination or official misconduct. Each issue requires a defined proposition, primary evidence and consideration of material contrary evidence.

Issue	Minimum evidence for assessment	Required independent decision	Current status
Historic title and parcel boundaries	Original conveyances, title registers, filed instruments, title plans and a documented chain for each parcel.	Property counsel to identify what is established, disputed and legally unresolved.	Unresolved pending document-by-document reconciliation.
Scope and effect of possession proceedings	Sealed order, schedules/plans, pleadings, judgment, transcript and execution records.	Counsel to state precisely what the court decided and what it did not decide.	Requires primary-record comparison.
Possible false statement or forged record	Exact statement or instrument; author and date; proof of falsity; evidence of knowledge and use; relevant legal duty and material consequence.	Solicitor to identify a specific civil wrong or suspected offence before referral.	No finding without identified primary evidence.
Possible concealment or improper record disposal	Custody and retention duties; inventory or audit trail; search/disposal records; evidence of deliberate suppression rather than loss, routine disposal or an incomplete search.	Relevant records custodian or independent investigator to determine what happened and who was responsible.	Distinguish missing, destroyed, withheld and not-yet-located records.
Potential conflict involving a public official	Named role, specific decision or action, contemporaneous record and evidence connecting the individual to it.	Request conflict screening and suitable independent handling where the evidence justifies it.	No blanket presumption against a department or individual.
Police conduct	Identified officer/unit, incident or decision reference, relevant correspondence and evidence of the alleged act or omission.	Appropriate complaints or oversight route to decide allocation and independence.	Independence must be based on a defined conflict, not assumption.
Ethnic motive or state policy	Contemporaneous statements, directions, policy records, evidence of intent and relevant comparator cases.	Independent legal/historical assessment against the applicable definition and jurisdiction.	Dispossession alone does not establish ethnic cleansing or a state-directed policy.
Information-access dispute	Original request, refusal, calculation, search details, review result and the applicable statutory provisions.	ICO or relevant ombudsman to assess within its remit; keep this separate from proof of a land-related offence.	Procedural dispute; no inference of substantive fraud from refusal alone.

Referral gate

Gate	Required record
1. Evidence preservation	Original file or certified copy, source, custodian, date obtained, file hash where appropriate and an unaltered preservation copy.
2. Issue definition	One factual proposition per issue; primary source; contrary evidence; evidential gap; and explanation of why the matter is material.
3. Independent legal assessment	Written view on jurisdiction, legal elements, limitation, available remedy and whether the evidence justifies referral.
4. Referral	Specific alleged act and relevant dates; indexed evidence; previous disclosures and responses; any documented conflict; requested assessment, not a demanded outcome.
5. Decision and remedy	Acknowledgement/reference, allocation decision, request for further evidence, findings or reasons provided, and review route.

Record each finding as substantiated, refuted, unresolved, insufficient evidence or not assessed, with reasons and source references. Non-response, resistance, association between organisations or knowledge of another party's position is not, by itself, proof of collusion.
