Their locally official rules stay\non those records. The [ontology module](generated/browser/ontology/missed-rubbish-collection.html)\nand [synthetic journey](generated/browser/journeys/missed-rubbish-collection.html) describe the\nshared editorial model.\n\n## Normalized interaction boundary\n\n1. Identify the council responsible for the address.\n2. Check the scheduled collection, local presentation conditions and any\n   disruption notice.\n3. Use the locally evidenced channel and timing rule only when its conditions\n   are met.\n4. Preserve the report outcome or rejection reason.\n5. If the service problem remains unresolved, use the council complaint route\n   before any jurisdiction-appropriate external body.\n\nA delivery contractor can be a required operational dependency without\nbecoming the accountable authority. The England redress evidence expressly\nstates that councils remain accountable for contractor-delivered waste\nservices; no equivalent contractor claim is inferred for the other examples.",
