In laying the report before Parliament at the end of March, the Ombudsman has brought matters to the attention of this House, making it clear that Parliament has a role in responding to the report. The Government intends to engage fully and constructively with Parliament. The Secretary of State has also committed to provide a further update to the House once the report's findings have been fully considered.
