I. A Complaint Was Filed Under Statute. They Declined to Investigate.
This document records a formal Section 5 statutory complaint under the Local Government and Housing Act 1989, filed against both RBKC and Westminster Children’s Services for:
Misuse of safeguarding as a tool of institutional retaliation
Disability adjustment breaches despite medical evidence and legal notification
Unlawful process escalation without harm threshold
Procedural harassment masked as professional concern
Neglect of lawful communication boundaries
The named actors include Kirsty Hornal, Glen Peache, Edward Kendall, Rhiannon Hodgson, and supervising leadership across boroughs.
The complaint was submitted to both Monitoring Officers:
LeVerne Parker (RBKC)
Legal Services (Westminster)
II. What the Response Confirms
RBKC replied formally — not with denial, but with disqualification.
Their position:
The complaint, though received, was not accepted for formal review
The events described did not reach their internal threshold for maladministration
The named misconduct was described as outside of Section 5 jurisdiction, despite originating inside the council’s statutory operations
This wasn’t a refusal to acknowledge.
It was an evasive reclassification of liability.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because when statutory harm is alleged and a Monitoring Officer responds by rejecting jurisdiction, that is not legal clarity — it is procedural erasure.
Because safeguarding is not outside policy when weaponised by employees of the state.
Because “we will not be investigating this” is not a neutral reply — it is a political one.
We filed this because:
The complaint was grounded in law
The refusal was grounded in internal thresholds
The misconduct was clear
And the legal duty — was evaded
Let the record show:
The statutes were cited.
The misconduct was named.
The thresholds were irrelevant.
And the refusal — was archived.
IV. SWANK’s Position
We do not accept councils redefining harm to avoid recordable responsibility.
We do not accept safeguarding escalation as immune from review.
We do not accept that a refusal to investigate is the same as innocence.
Let the record show:
The statute was activated.
The officer was notified.
The silence was formalised.
And SWANK — has indexed the dodge.
This wasn’t a rejection.
It was a policy performance of denial, caught in PDF.
