Ombudsman’s Determination

Outcome

Mrs T’s complaint against Surrey County Council is partly upheld, but there is a part of the complaint I do not agree with. To put matters right (for the part that is upheld) Surrey County Council should pay Mrs T £500 for distress and inconvenience.

My reasons for reaching this decision are explained in more detail below.
