Slough Borough Council (24 011 103)
Statement Upheld Other 12-Jun-2025
Summary: Mr X complained about the Council’s actions linked to reports of a vehicle which belonged to him being abandoned. We found fault as the Council gave out an incorrect telephone number and did not respond to an email from Mr X in a timely manner. This caused Mr X avoidable distress. The Council has already apologised to Mr X and made a symbolic payment to him. We are satisfied this has remedied any injustice caused to Mr X.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Noise 12-Jun-2025
Summary: We cannot investigate Mr X’s complaint about the Council’s response to his concerns about noise nuisance and planning enforcement issues relating to an airfield. The matters about noise are outside our jurisdiction because they have already been considered by a court. We will not investigate the planning enforcement issues because the Council has considered whether to take enforcement action but decided it is not expedient to do so. There is insufficient evidence of fault in this decision to warrant an investigation.

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council (24 012 928)
Statement Upheld Alternative provision 12-Jun-2025
Summary: Ms X complained that the Council failed to provide her child with suitable education and delayed issuing an Education, Health and Care Plan. There was an eight month delay in issuing the Plan, however we have not found fault in the Council’s decisions that Ms X’s child had access to suitable schooling and it was not necessary for it to provide alternative education. The Council has agreed to apologise and make a symbolic payment to acknowledge the impact of the delayed Plan.

Essex County Council (24 013 437)
Statement Not upheld Special educational needs 12-Jun-2025
Summary: Mrs X complained her child had not received the speech and language therapy (SALT) provision in their Education, Health and Care Plan. We have ended the investigation as there is insufficient evidence of fault. The Council has agreed to arrange a private SALT assessment and further investigation is unlikely to achieve more. Mrs X also complained about the actions of the School which we cannot investigate and the Council’s efforts to arrange mediation, which we will not investigate further as it is unlikely we would find the Council at fault.
