Statement Closed after initial enquiries Child protection 25-Apr-2025

Suffolk County Council (24 020 538)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Special educational needs 25-Apr-2025
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint that the Council was at fault in declining to include the provision of school transport in the complainant’s daughter’s Education Health and Care plan, and in failing to respond reasonably to her complaint about the matter. She used her right to appeal to the First-tier Tribunal (Special Educational Needs and Disability) and this places the complaint outside the Ombudsman’s jurisdiction.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Child protection 24-Apr-2025

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Parking and other penalties 24-Apr-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about London Tribunal’s handling of her appeal against a penalty charge notice. This is because we cannot achieve the outcome Ms X wants. The law does not allow us to consider complaints about the Adjudicator’s decision to dismiss Ms X’s appeal, including the way they reached the decision, and the administrative issues she complains about did not cause her significant injustice separate from the decision itself.

Kent County Council (24 022 223)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Special educational needs 24-Apr-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Mrs X’s complaint about an educational psychologist report commissioned as part of the Education Health and Care needs assessment process for her son. This is because Mrs X believes the report led to the wrongful refusal of her application for an Education Health and Care Plan and it would be reasonable for her to appeal against this decision. The Tribunal is better placed to determine whether the report was flawed and it has the power to overturn the Council’s decision, which we do not.
-
London Borough of Redbridge (24 022 328)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Street furniture and lighting 24-Apr-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s decision to install a charging point outside his home. Any injustice the Council’s actions has caused to Mr X is not significant enough to warrant an investigation. Additionally, there is no worthwhile outcome achievable.
