Kirkham, R.M. (2016) The ombudsman, tribunals and administrative justice section: a 2020 vision for the ombudsman sector. Journal of Social Welfare and Family Law, 38 (1). pp. 103-114. ISSN 0964-9069
Abstract
This article analyses the growing role for ombudsman schemes in the UK administrative justice system following the Government reforms post 2010. It argues that the ombudsman institution is perhaps the one example of an administrative justice body that looks set to emerge stronger over the period. But the ombudsman sector needs to guard against complacency, as the demands, expectations and publicity placed upon it are all likely to increase.
