There are no such bodies that fall under the aegis of my Department. While it may not come within the category set out in this question, in the interest of completeness the Deputy may wish to be aware that Section 19 of the Passports Act 2008 provides for a Passport Appeals Officer, to whom a person not satisfied with the decision of the Passport Service in relation to their application may apply and sets out the conditions governing this appeal process.
