9EF1Report and recommendations
1
The Ombudsman must prepare a report on any complaint he has investigated under section 9D.
2
The report must state—
a
what findings the Ombudsman has made;
b
whether he considers the complaint should be upheld in whole or part;
c
if he does, what if any action he recommends should be taken by the Commission or the Lord Chancellor as a result of the complaint.
3
The recommendations that may be made under subsection (2)(c) include recommendations for the payment of compensation.
4
Such a recommendation must relate to loss which appears to the Ombudsman to have been suffered by the complainant as a result of maladministration and not as a result of any failure to be appointed to an office to which the complaint related.
