Transport for London (24 021 232)
Report Upheld Other 09-Oct-2025
Summary: We have found Transport for London’s (TfL) operation of its vehicle scrappage schemes failed to: be open, accountable and transparent about its process for handling applications to these schemes; and follow a proper process for making, and publicising, changes to the schemes’ terms and conditions and their operation. This has caused uncertainty and misled the public about the way it administers and determines applications to these schemes.

London Borough of Ealing (24 010 877)
Statement Upheld Allocations 09-Oct-2025
Summary: We found fault on Mrs Y’s homeless complaint about the Council’s decision to end the housing duty it owed her. It delayed identifying she had not been evicted from her property, failed to realise the significance of the tenancy agreement when she first sent it, failed to tell her she had review rights against its decision she was not homeless, and failed to act on her request for a statutory review of her accommodation’s suitability. It delayed responding to her complaint. The Council agreed to send her a written apology; reissue the decision and set out her review rights; back date any increased priority and carry out a suitability review should the review find in her favour; review why it failed to decide it owed her no main housing duty sooner; review why there was a delay responding to her complaint. It also agreed to pay her £100 for the delays with her complaint. These actions remedy the injustice caused. There was no fault on her complaint about it reducing her banding or about it failing to find her alternative suitable accommodation.

Statement Upheld Enforcement 09-Oct-2025
Summary: There was fault by the Council, because of delays in its complaint handling and in its decision to open a planning enforcement investigation. The Council has agreed to apologise for this. However, a delay in sending formal confirmation of the enforcement investigation did not represent an injustice to the complainant; and we have discontinued our investigation, about the way the Council dealt with alleged breaches of a construction management plan, because we cannot make a meaningful finding.
