London Borough of Wandsworth (25 024 386)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Parking and other penalties 30-Jun-2026
Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s response to reports of parking obstructions outside his home. This is because there is insufficient evidence of fault by the Council to justify an investigation. In addition, the Council has already considered the concerns raised and taken appropriate action within its powers. Further investigation by the Ombudsman would be unlikely to achieve a different outcome.

Statement Upheld Special educational needs 30-Jun-2026

We consider this an appropriate remedy and further investigation is therefore unlikely to achieve anything more.
