  • London Borough of Islington (25 008 234)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Parking and other penalties 07-Nov-2025

The Council has agreed to apologise, complete Ms X’s support plan and make a payment to Ms X to acknowledge the injustice caused. It will also issue guidance to officers.
