Toilet paper won’t flush away ?

Nobody will like this idea; try putting the toilet paper in a wee flip top bin at the side of the toilet like they do in most other countries.
And what do you do with it then?

'Proper' toilet tissue will dissolve in the water during its passage to the Treatment works,
It’s not even getting round the U bend never mind a passage to the works.
I’ve got some toilet paper in water now, still waiting for it to dissolve.

Just a thought,

Did the Housing Association make any other "Improvments" to the drainage system, like blocking of a soil stack vent or worse fitting an Air Admittance Valve (AAV) on the top of the soil stack

Without an effective vent the air pressure wave created by a flush could not escape from the soil pipe and this would slow the rate at which materials can leave the toilet pan.
 
Other things to check for are slack between the plastic arm on the spindle and the flush valve rising and a worn diaphram on old valves and with some newer duel flush valves you have to hold the handle down for a second or so longer to release a full flush of water.

The opposite with some flushes - Hold down for short flush on our two.

Are you sure it's toilet paper, all that we get, no particular brand, breaks up in the pan instantly.
 
Charmin toilet paper doesnt or maybe didnt disolve quickly, at one point it was on the verge of being banned in the uk.
