Mrs X complains the Council failed to meet the legal timescales when she requested an Education, Health and Care Needs Assessment and Plan for her son Y. We find the Council at fault for delays in issuing Y’s Education, Health and Care Plan that caused injustice. The Council agreed to apologise and make a symbolic payment to remedy the injustice.
