I am laying before Parliament, under section 14(4) of the Health Service Commissioners Act 1993 (as amended), this report of a joint investigation into a complaint made to the Local Government Ombudsman for England and to me as Health Service Ombudsman for England.

The complaint is about 5 Boroughs Partnership NHS Trust and St Helens Metropolitan Borough Council. The complaint was made by Ms A about the care provided to her cousin, the late Mr B.

My reason for laying this report before Parliament is to allow the joint investigation report to be in the public domain.
