Publisher summary

We will not investigate Miss X’s complaint about the Council’s children services teams handling of safeguarding allegations between 2017 and 2019. There are not enough reasons to disapply the late complaint rule. We cannot investigate recent safeguarding referrals as the Court could have made orders about this.
