Commonwealth Ombudsman Annual reports/ Veronique Ingram/ Adam Toma 

Following is the Annual Reports of the Commonwealth Ombudsman.
In the past financial year there has been a 16% increase in complaints.
This is largely due to the skonky staff  at the Commonwealth Ombudsman fucking over complaints and protecting systemic corrupt conduct in Government departments. This corrupt conduct is also protected by Steven Sedgewick who is the fucker at the Australian Public Service Commission.
Veronique Ingram, Inspector General in Bankruptcy and Adam Toma Enforcement Manager at ITSA has also requested the Federal police to protect  systemic corrupt conduct in the Bankruptcy System

Our office finalised 40,477 approaches and complaints, up from 38,957 last year. Of these, 23,317 were within jurisdiction, compared to 19,903 in 2010-11, a 16% increase.
We also published five formal reports across a diverse range of areas, from biosecurity to Income-Management decision making in remote Northern Territory Indigenous communities. The majority of our recommendations were accepted by agencies in full and commitments made in others. We prepared nine submissions to Parliamentary committees, including on language learning in Indigenous communities, cybercrime and immigration detention. And we made four submissions to government inquiries.

During 2010-11 the number of approaches and complaints to our office continued to grow, reaching almost 39,000, a four per cent increase on the previous year. Of these, 51 per cent were considered complaints within our jurisdiction. We investigated 4468 separate complaints during the year, roughly the same as last year.
We also published 13 formal reports across a diverse range of areas. Ninety per cent of our recommendations were accepted by agencies in full and a further nine per cent in part. We completed 37 inspections across 17 different agencies, at the Commonwealth and the state and territory levels. Our inspection work in relation to the use of certain covert and coercive powers continues to provide an important assurance to the Parliament.
Our responsibilities continue to expand. We gained the new function of Overseas Students Ombudsman in April 2011, and expect to soon become the Norfolk Island Ombudsman.
