The creation of the European Ombudsman by the Treaty of Maastricht is part of the endeavour to democratize EC practice. Its aim is to ensure citizens the right to lodge complaints with an Ombudsman designated by Parliament. He is competent for handling ail misadministration cases within community institutions or agencies and according to the statute drafted by the European Parliament, will have powers of enquiry and recommendation. His assessments can become part of the parliamentary political control of the Commission.
