It’s far larger considering the outbreaks it sparked in other states & Mexico. kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

- *New* report from Local Govt and Social Care Ombudsman finds that 94% (NINETY FOUR PERCENT!) of complaints to council relating to Special Education Needs are upheld. This level of fault in council action and decision making is scandalous. It is not random error. This is local government in crisis.
