Complaint summary
Mrs Ascough’s complaint about the Council, the administering authority, is that her deceased husband, Mr P Ascough, should have been considered for an enhanced ill health pension before he left employment. She also believes that she should receive an enhanced pension and lump sum payment following his death.
Summary of the Ombudsman’s Determination and reason
The complaint should not be upheld against the Council because I am unable to find maladministration on their part.
