Failure to secure appointment of deputy Ombudsman's summary: "Mrs Z complained about the Council’s failure to ensure Mr X had somebody to take decisions about his welfare and finances. We found fault with the Council for delaying a Mental Capacity assessment for the complainant (Mr X) and for not acting to appoint a person who could take decisions about Mr X’s welfare and finances. The Council’s failings caused injustice to Mr X. The Council agreed to apologise to Mr X, to apply for the appointment of a deputy and to carry out some service improvements."
