The other thing that bothers me - and certainly from within here it is a problem and if so, it must be a problem for the Office of the Ombudsman - is trying to nail down the lead Department. We find that in so much of what goes on in our society, one part of it belongs to one Department and another part to another Department and trying to get to the person who should answer the question is sometimes extremely difficult. Is that something that frustrates the Ombudsman's staff?
