Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 10-Feb-2026

-
London Borough of Havering (25 001 405)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 04-Feb-2026
Summary: We will not investigate Mr X’s complaint about bias and discrimination by the Council because there is insufficient evidence of fault to justify our involvement and because the Council has agreed to take further action in relation to another complaint. We will not consider its complaints handling further because it has apologised and offered a payment to remedy the injustice caused by its delays so further investigation by us is unlikely to lead to a different outcome.
-

-
