There is nothing to say on the points about a single portal and a streamlined structure for complaints, because I totally agree with Mr. Tyndall. As the Chairman suggested, people should be told by public bodies that if they are not happy with a decision in a particular area, they have a right to go to the Ombudsman and we should push that.

From Mr. Tyndall's experience this year, have any particular areas shown a surge in complaints indicating problems?
