Let's break down the information step by step:

Jack is not the neighbour of Simon.

Harry is just to the left of Larry.
→ (Harry, Larry) is a fixed pair.

There is at least one to the left of Larry.
→ Larry is not the first person.

Paul lives in one of the two middle houses.
→ Paul is in position 4 or 5.

Mike lives between Paul and Larry.
→ The order is (Paul, Mike, Larry) or (Larry, Mike, Paul).

At least one person lives to the right of Robert.
→ Robert is not the last person.

Harry is not between Taud and Larry.

By Analyzing the options:
Robert is not at the left end – Correct (since there’s someone to his right).
Robert is in between Simon and Taud – Possibly based on placement.
Taud is in between Paul and Jack – This cannot be true because Mike must be between Paul and Larry, leaving no room for Taud.
There are three persons to the right of Paul – Possible if Paul is in position 4.
So, The incorrect statement is: "Taud is in between Paul and Jack".
