We cannot consider Mr X’s complaints about events between 2022 and 2023 because these are late. We will not consider a complaint about how medication was used in 2024 because this is being considered by the coroner. Once the coroner’s considerations are complete, Mr X can ask us to look at this part of the complaint.
