Full decision

Summary

Mr C complained about a pre-sentence report prepared at the request of the court by the partnership's criminal justice social work service. He considered that the process and the report itself were unreasonable. Mr C also complained about contact the social work service made with two third parties regarding his case.

We took independent advice from a social work adviser. We found that the report and the process followed was reasonable and all relevant guidance was appropriately followed. We also found that there was no evidence of unreasonable contact with the two third parties. We did not uphold either of Mr  C's complaints.
