The Ombudsman may demand that the administrative proceedings be initiated in any matter disposed of through a decision if the substantive law provides for initiation of the proceedings upon application of a party. The Ombudsman does not, however, help citizens out in submitting requests for the initiation of the proceedings or legal remedies against administrative resolutions: he does not exercise the role of their general representative for litigation. The Ombudsman should be at liberty to choose the matter, procedure and instance in which he will take action. This should not be perceived as a case of unequal treatment of citizens.
