Terms and conditions of use

Public Service Ombudsman Watchers is run by a small group of diverse but dedicated Ombudsman Watchers. We started this web site to expose Public Service Ombudsmen to public scrutiny rather than as a campaigning website. We did this so we would compliment other websites such as Ombudsmanwatch.

We intend to post any material that will help achieve our aim, so it you have a story about the Ombudsmen in question, an article that you have written, any evidence that you would like others to be aware of, any news, jokes or cartoons about Ombudsmen that illustrate the reality of the situation then please send it to us. We would appreciate the opportunity to add the information to our site even if it's already posted or hosted on another site. Over the next few months we hope to build an extensive resource so we welcome any contributions. All we ask is that they are related in some way to Public Service Ombudsmen.
