Ombudsman rules in favour of man with autism & family

‘Financially motivated’ council breached Care Act by cutting autistic man’s personal budget

Ombudsman finds Nottinghamshire council’s failure to meet man’s care needs left him and his parents covering the shortfall.

Good to see the law being upheld by LGO

Just a pity that the family had to suffer in the beginning.

Should not be having to fight to get councils to follow the law.

Sadly this is routinely happening.
