London Borough of Haringey (24 021 379)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 05-Jun-2025
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about uplifting fees to a care provider for the service it provides on behalf of the Council to meet an adult’s social care needs. Although the Council did not tell the complainant how to appeal, that does not solely cause the claimed injustice of missing a review of the decision. The Care Provider’s actions also contributed as when it asked to challenge, the Council had set its budget for the year. It is unlikely an Ombudsman investigation would achieve any worthwhile outcome.
