Background
Guernsey residents have no access to an independent public services ombudsman. This leaves serious complaints—such as in mental health care. safeguarding or policing unresolved and unaccountable. We call on the UK government to ensure Guernsey residents have access to UK ombudsman services or equivalent external oversight, and to uphold its duty to guarantee good governance in Crown Dependencies.
