Statement Closed after initial enquiries Antisocial behaviour 30-Jun-2025

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Council tax 30-Jun-2025
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s recovery of council tax arrears.

We will not exercise discretion to investigate events earlier than 2024 because this is outside the normal 12-month period for receiving complaints.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 30-Jun-2025
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s failing to invite him to review meetings or its assessment reports for the court. The law prevents us from investigating anything that is the subject of court proceedings and we also cannot achieve the outcome Mr X wants.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Special educational needs 30-Jun-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Mrs X’s complaint about the Council’s handling of her daughter’s Education, Health and Care needs assessment. This is because the injustice she claims stems from the Council’s decision not to issue her daughter an Education, Health and Care Plan and this decision carried a right of appeal which it would have been reasonable for Mrs X to use.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Council tax 30-Jun-2025
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s decision to apply an empty home premium to the complainant’s council tax account. This is because it is unlikely an investigation would add to the Council’s response. The complainant also could have appealed to a Valuation Tribunal.

Nottinghamshire County Council (25 000 458)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Child protection 30-Jun-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s child protection actions. The complaint is late and there is no good reason to exercise discretion to investigate these matters now. It is also likely that at least some of the complaint concerns matters that were or could reasonably have been mentioned during court proceedings. We will not investigate those matters.
