Whilst we see some force in the argument that a Human Rights Ombudsperson could fill some of the gaps that currently exist in the ombuds landscape, we do not believe the creation of a Human Rights Ombudsperson would be a proportionate response. The creation of a new Human Rights Ombudsperson would not make it easier for people seeking to bring complaints regarding their human rights. (Paragraph 51) Improving the current framework
