London Borough of Bromley (24 006 466)
Statement Upheld Alternative provision 13-Feb-2025
Summary: There was fault in the way the Council considered whether it had a duty to provide alternative education when a child stopped attending their school.

Birmingham City Council (24 007 138)
Statement Upheld Refuse and recycling 13-Feb-2025
Summary: Mr X complained the Council has repeatedly failed to collect his household waste and recycling on the scheduled days. He complains this has been an ongoing issue for several years and the Council has failed to take appropriate or effective action to resolve it. We found the Council’s continued failure to collect Mr X’s recycling on the scheduled day is fault. This led to an accumulation of waste on the street and Mr X has spent a considerable amount of time picking up litter that has been blown around following missed collections. The Council has agreed to apologise, make a payment to Mr X and monitor his collections.
