New Zealand Ombudsman

The New Zealand Ombudsman is an independent authority that investigates and resolves complaints from the public about how government agencies and organizations carry out their duties. They ensure these bodies act fairly, transparently, and within the law. The Ombudsman can recommend changes, request explanations, and help people access information or services they are entitled to. Their role promotes accountability in public administration, helping maintain trust between the government and citizens, all while operating independently to provide unbiased oversight.
