Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask Her Majesty's Government how many complaints were submitted about the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman in 2016; and what were the main themes of those complaints.
The Department does not collect these data. The Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO) is independent of Government, being accountable to Parliament through the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee.
This would be a matter for the PHSO to address.
