Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead Council (24 003 816)
Statement Upheld Child protection 29-Jan-2025
Summary: There was fault by the Council because it did not involve Mr X in safeguarding enquiries about his child, it cannot show that Mr X and his family failed to cooperate with the enquiry, and it did not deal with his complaint properly. There was no fault in how the Council weighed up police evidence and how it involved another local authority. The Council’s shortcomings caused Mr X and his family distress and frustration. It has agreed to take action to remedy this.

Kent County Council (24 013 815)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Charging 29-Jan-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Miss X’s complaint about the Council billing her son Mr X for backdated care fees, the time taken before officers noticed the debt, officer comments during a telephone call, other administrative issues on the account, and the debt amount being sought. There is not enough evidence of Council fault which alters the care fee debt to warrant us investigating. The Council apologised for the officer’s comments and investigation would achieve no different outcome. There is insufficient injustice caused by the administrative issues and the dispute about the debt amount to justify an investigation.
