    No. The power in Special Educational Needs and Disability (First-tier Tribunal Recommendations Power) Regulations 2017 is only to make recommendations, following which the LA or CCG has to respond within 5 weeks. Only the procedure (not the provision itself) is enforceable: VS and RS v Hampshire CC [2021] UKUT 187 (AAC) #41.
