North Lincolnshire Council (19 021 143)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 01-May-2020
Summary: The Ombudsman will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s 2017 decision to grant a Certificate of Lawful Development to a nearby industrial site. The complaint is late. There is not enough evidence of Council fault to justify an Ombudsman investigation of the matter now. Mr X can submit to the Council any evidence he has about the site’s certification which he considers should result in different decision, and it would be reasonable to ask the courts to decide any question of the Council’s interpretation of planning law relevant to the site.

North Lincolnshire Council (18 013 579)
Statement Upheld Assessment and care plan 13-Mar-2020
Summary: The Ombudsmen find fault by the Trust, in that it sent Mr M’s follow-up appointment letters to the wrong address and as a result he was discharged from follow-up care. This meant Mr M did not have the opportunity to discuss his care with a specialist. However the Ombudsmen find it was reasonable of the Trust and Council not to refer Mr M for continuing healthcare, and that he was provided with stroke rehabilitation in line with the relevant standards and guidance.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Highway repair and maintenance 10-Mar-2020
Summary: The Ombudsman will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about how the Council has dealt with his claim for compensation after his car was damaged by a pothole. It is reasonable to expect Mr X to take court action for the compensation he seeks, and the complaint is therefore outside the Ombudsman’s legal remit.
