  • London Borough of Harrow (24 011 365)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Child protection 04-Dec-2024

    Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s handling of Miss X’s complaints. We cannot investigate complaint handling in isolation where the substantive matters of the complaint are ones we could not investigate. The substantive matters are ones that either directly formed part of court action, or could reasonably have been raised in court proceedings. We also could not investigate earlier matters from 2020 robustly even if they were unconnected to the court action.

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Antisocial behaviour 26-Nov-2024

    Summary: Mr X complained the Council failed to take action against his neighbour for noisy building works during 2022. I ended this investigation because Mr X’s complaint is late, and we are unlikely able to add to the Council’s investigation or achieve anything further for Mr X than its offer of £100.

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Housing benefit and council tax benefit 19-Nov-2024

  • London Borough of Harrow (23 019 869)

    Statement Upheld Residential care 18-Nov-2024

    Summary: Miss X complained about the care provided to her mother, Mrs Y, at the Council commissioned care home and about the care home’s decision to evict Mrs Y. She also complained about the way the Council dealt with safeguarding concerns. The care home was at fault for inaccurate care plans, for failing to supervise Mrs Y and another resident and for using a knife to open her locked door. The Council has agreed to apologise and make a payment to acknowledge the distress and frustration caused to Miss X. The care home also failed to provide Mrs Y with appropriate oral care. The Council has agreed to make a payment to acknowledge the discomfort this caused. There was no fault in the way the care home reached the decision to evict Mrs Y or in the way the Council responded to safeguarding concerns.
