  • London Borough of Ealing (24 013 463)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Allocations 05-Feb-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about the Council’s housing register decision because it is appropriate for the Council to review it. We cannot investigate complaints about councils acting as social landlords, which means we cannot investigate a complaint about the Council’s response to reports of disrepair in a Council property.

  • Portsmouth City Council (24 013 523)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Allocations 05-Feb-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s housing register decision. This is because there is insufficient evidence of fault to justify our involvement.

  • Lincolnshire County Council (24 013 848)

    Statement Upheld Assessment and care plan 05-Feb-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint that the Council placed his mother into a care home against her wishes and that she did not receive the free six weeks of care she was entitled to. This is because the likely fault has not caused any injustice to Mrs Z. Further, the Council has appropriately remedied the injustice caused to Mr X and so an investigation would not lead to a different outcome.

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Charging 05-Feb-2025

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Licensing 05-Feb-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about how the Council handled an appeal of a food hygiene rating. The courts are better placed to consider his complaint, and we could not achieve the outcome he wants.
