The Ombudsmen - Human Rights Act and Tribunals

The following may give an insight into the Ombudsmen's views of Article 6 of the Huma Rights Act and tribunals in general.

MINUTES OF EVIDENCE TAKEN BEFORE THE JOINT COMMITTEE ON FINANCIAL SERVICES AND MARKETS

EXAMINATION OF WITNESSES

THURSDAY 15 APRIL 1999 Minutes reagrding the new Financial Services Ombudsman scheme:

*** READ THE FULL REPORT *** at :

http://www.parliament.the-stationery-office.co.uk/pa/jt199899/jtselect/jtfinser/328/9041501.htm

This phrase regarding article 6 of the Human Rights Act is an example of their views; "The issue therefore is, how does one minimise the effects of Article 6 and that is something upon which we have more work to do."

I would welcome comments from anyone once they have read the report.
