We found fault by the Council on Miss Y’s complaint about it failing to meet its duties under the homeless relief stage, deciding whether it owed her the main housing duty, and not contacting her for seven months. The agreed action remedies the injustice caused. There was no fault on her complaint about it failing to place her in suitable interim accommodation.
