    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Homelessness 15-Jan-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Miss X’s complaint about the Council’s decision to refer her homelessness application to another housing authority. This is because it is reasonable to expect Miss X to use her appeal rights to a court.

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Homelessness 15-Jan-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the suitability of his temporary accommodation because this is too closely connected to the Council’s decision he has made himself intentionally homeless.

  • Cornwall Council (24 012 064)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Special educational needs 15-Jan-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s assessment of and provision for Miss X’s child’s special educational needs between February 2022 and the date when the Special Educational Needs and Disability Tribunal determined the provision. Some of matters complained of are closely linked to matters that were for the Tribunal to decide and we cannot comment on them. Others concern matters we are prevented by a legal ruling from considering. And the remaining matters are late, with there being no good reason for us to exercise discretion to investigate them now.

  • Norfolk County Council (24 012 210)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Charging 15-Jan-2025

  • Buckinghamshire Council (24 012 333)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Special educational needs 15-Jan-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Mrs X’s complaint about the Council’s poor communication because an investigation is unlikely to achieve any additional outcome. We will not investigate the remainder of Mrs X’s complaint because she can submit a subject access request and later take the matter to the Information Commissioner’s Office.

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Assessment and care plan 15-Jan-2025

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Charging 15-Jan-2025
