An extension has been built beside my house. It is about 200mm away from my wall. The planning drawing was wrong but no authority figure cares

The general rule of thumb is that no permanent structure may be built within 3 feet of any property line. With that in mind the minimum would be 6 feet. i.e. 3 feet from your house to the property line(fence) and 3 feet to the neighbors house = 6 feet.

It differs according to the zoning laws of your city or town. Contact someone in your town government for more information. In my town, the public works department is where the zone officer is. Good luck!

Is there not an easement between lots?
Any property restrictions?
This could devalue your home. Check with a realtor in your area for info, or an atty.
