Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council (24 019 005)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Enforcement 27-Mar-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about the Council deciding not to enforce against her neighbour for installing a larger window in their extension than permitted.

East Riding of Yorkshire Council (24 019 621)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 27-Mar-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about a charity’s treatment of his late father. This is because the charity was not carrying out any administrative functions on behalf of the Council and it is not itself a body within our jurisdiction. Its actions are not therefore subject to investigation by the Ombudsman. We could not achieve any worthwhile outcome by investigating the way the Council dealt with Mr X’s complaint as it is not responsible for the actions complained about.

Summary: We will not investigate Mrs X’s historic complaint about unpaid charges for care provision. The complaint lies outside our jurisdiction because it is late and there are no good grounds to exercise discretion to consider this very late complaint now.
-

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Parking and other penalties 27-Mar-2025
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about a Penalty Charge Notice. This is because there is insufficient evidence of fault by the Council and because the complainant could have appealed to the tribunal.
