    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Looked after children 03-Feb-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about the Council’s loss of records from when she was in care. This is because we could not now achieve a worthwhile outcome, and the Information Commissioner’s Office is better placed to consider her concerns about information handling.

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Homelessness 03-Feb-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate this late complaint about the Council’s decisions on Mr X’s homelessness application. There is not a good reason for the significant delay in Mr X bringing the complaint to us, and in any event it was reasonable for Mr X to appeal the decisions he complains about.

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Allocations 03-Feb-2025

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Looked after children 03-Feb-2025

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 03-Feb-2025
