Headlined “Ombudsman Under Threat”, the report includes recommendations for the Polish parliament to support the country’s Commissioner for Human Rights so that he can independently exercise his mandate, Michał Owczarek reports.

“The [Polish] Commissioner for Human Rights Office is a renowned institution with high prestige in all of Europe. We want [Poles] to continue to receive redress, when something goes wrong, through his office,” the president of IOI Europe, Rafael Ribo, said.
