Devon County Council (24 009 269)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Traffic management 30-Oct-2024
Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council asking Mr X’s removal company to move their vehicle because it was parked overhanging a section of road where a ‘no loading/unloading’ restriction applied. This is because there is not enough evidence of fault by the Council or to show its actions caused Mr X significant injustice. Mr X is clearly unhappy with the ‘no loading/unloading’ restriction but it was his choice to move to the area and we cannot say it must change the road layout or parking restrictions just because he would like it to do so.

Statement Upheld Residential care 29-Oct-2024
Summary: We find the Care Provider at fault for invoicing Mr B for his mother’s care without first making checks about her circumstances. However, the Care Provider later recognised its error and apologised to Mr B. It then went on to say it would no longer ask him to pay the invoice. We did not consider we could achieve a better outcome for Mr B. This was because we could only have conducted a limited investigation, given the passage of time since Mr B’s mother was in the Care Provider’s care.
