". The Annual report on the European Ombudsman contains a detailed account of the institution’s activity over the last year. The facts are impressive: he received 2 510 complaints (2 667 in 2010), opened 396 inquiries (335 in 2010) and completed 318 inquiries (326 in 2010); of the total of 2 544 complaints processed by the Ombudsman in 2011, 698 (27 %) were within his mandate (744 in 2010). It is a body which, operating as intermediary between citizens and EU bodies, helps identify instances of maladministration within European Union institutions and bodies. I believe in the need to safeguard observance of the law and the principles of good administration or human rights, whenever an institution is in breach of these through acts of maladministration. So on the one hand the European Ombudsman helps create a citizen-friendly Union, and on the other hand he improves administrative efficiency. I am pleased that the importance of the activity carried out is borne out by the figures presented. For these reasons I voted in favour of the report on the European Ombudsman’s activities."@en1
