THE OMBUDSMAN INSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLIC OF TÜRKİYE

1.6 Ombudsman Mr. Hüseyin Yürük

It is highly important that the administrators are impartial and independent at
the stages of decision-making, implementation and supervision, that they do not
discriminate individuals with their decisions and always prioritise justice and equity by
taking the basic moral principles into account in order to strengthen the commitment
and reliability between the state and the public and prevent potential shortcomings
and conflicts that might arise from the delivery of the services provided by the
administrations. However, no matter how ideal the structure of the state is and how
sensitive the administrators are, there is always a possibility that the administration does
not act in compliance with the law and equity in its procedures and practices.

th
Reasons such as the increase in the population of countries as of the 20 century in
particular, the increase in communication and interaction between people, societies
and countries, scientific and technological developments, the expansion of the
administrative structures of States, the complex political structures in the countries and
the deterioration and degeneration of State administrations in the 20th century have
made it impossible for legislative bodies to supervise the public administration on their
own. As a result, the Constitutional Court (Individual Application), the Ombudsman,
Human Rights Institutions and other forms of supervision have emerged apart from the
supervision of legislative bodies.
