    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Trees 06-Jul-2026

    Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about a claim for damaged property where the complainant believes the Council is liable for compensation.

It is therefore reasonable to expect them to use their legal remedy.

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Charging 05-Jul-2026

  • London Borough of Harrow (25 009 666)

    Statement Upheld Special educational needs 02-Jul-2026

    Summary: Miss X complained the Council failed to complete a key stage transfer review of her child’s Education, Health and Care Plan by the legal deadline which left them with no educational placement. We found the Council at fault for not properly carrying out a key stage transfer review and failing to act on Miss X’s concerns her child was not receiving an education. This caused Miss X and her child uncertainty. The Council has agreed to apologise and make a payment to recognise the injustice its actions caused to Miss X and her child. It has also agreed to make changes to its service to prevent the same faults happening again.
