North East Lincolnshire Council (25 004 898)

Surrey County Council (25 005 178)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Special educational needs 29-Sep-2025
Summary: We cannot investigate most of Mrs X’s complaint about her child’s Education, Health and Care Plan because she appealed to the SEND Tribunal. We will not investigate part of her complaint because the Information Commissioner’s Office is better suited. The Council apologised for its poor communication, so an investigation by the Ombudsman into that matter is unlikely to achieve anything further.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Special educational needs 29-Sep-2025

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 29-Sep-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council not requiring a neighbour to remove or cut back a bush at the end of his drive, and its reply to his solicitor’s letter. There is not enough evidence of fault by the Council, nor of a sufficiently significant injustice caused to Mr X by the matters complained of, to warrant an investigation. We also cannot achieve the outcome he seeks.

Leicester City Council (25 005 542)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 29-Sep-2025
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council turning down Mrs X’s Right to Buy application. It was reasonable to expect Mrs X to challenge the refusal by using her specific appeal rights to go to court.

Statement Not upheld School admissions 29-Sep-2025
Summary: Mr G complained about the school admissions appeal hearing for his child, who we will call H. During our investigation, H received an offer of a place at Whitley Bay High School.

Wigan Metropolitan Borough Council (25 006 288)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 29-Sep-2025
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about how the Council dealt with breaches of planning control and a retrospective planning application. This is because part of the complaint is late, and the complainant had the right to appeal to the Planning Inspector. It is unlikely we could add to the Council’s response in relation to the remaining issues complained about.
