  • Reading Borough Council (24 017 108)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 30-Apr-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint that the Council forged a document because there is not enough evidence of fault, and Mr X’s complaint about bailiffs visits is premature. Mr X’s complaint about a bus pass has already been remedied and further investigation is unlikely to provide a different outcome. We cannot investigate Mr X’s complaint about housing benefit payments as he took this matter to court.

  • London Borough of Southwark (24 020 047)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 27-Apr-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s assessment of a housing application and disclosing third party data to a housing applicant. There is insufficient evidence of fault causing any significant injustice from the Council’s actions.

  • Birmingham City Council (24 019 616)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 24-Apr-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s administration of its Accommodation Finding Service which Mr X says has been unsatisfactory for him as a private landlord using the service. There is insufficient evidence of fault which would warrant an investigation.

  • Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council (24 019 854)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 23-Apr-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s failure to disclose information about a third party who is a tenant in a property which the complainant owns. It would be reasonable for the complainant to make a formal subject access request and if this is unsuccessful there is another body better placed to consider the matter.
