Summary: We cannot investigate Mrs X’s complaint about the Council’s decision to name a school in her child’s Education Health and Care Plan which Mrs X says cannot meet their needs.

Bath and North East Somerset Council (25 003 464)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Charging 01-Sep-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint, brought by Miss Y, about the Council’s decision to include Mr X’s main residence as an asset available for use in paying care fees when calculating his finances and asking him to separately register the flats in the property to realise them as assets. There is not enough evidence of fault in the Council’s decision-making process to warrant us going behind its decision. It is not unreasonable for Mr X and his family to put the legal dispute at the core of the complaint before a court. We also cannot achieve the complaint outcomes sought.
