Service standards
A Freedom of Information request to Local Government Ombudsmen by A Johnson
The request was successful.
A Johnson
16 January 2010
Dear Local Government Ombudsmen,
Dr Jane Martin the new Ombudsman is on record stating
'I want to make sure that we build on already excellent service
standards'
Past surveys have suggested that the service standards of the LGO
are far from good let alone excellent. So please supply any
information or evidence, from an independent source, that supports
Dr Jane Martin's bold assertion that the LGO already has excellent
service standards.
Yours faithfully,
A Johnson

Dear A Johnson
I am aware that we are due to respond to this request by 15 February, but I am afraid there may be a slight delay. This is mainly due to staff sickness. I hope to get a response to you before the end of next week.
Yours sincerely

Note that their response makes no reference to the abysmal quality of the service they deliver.
With some 75% of complainants being dissatisfied I can understand why they avoided this particular statistic in their response.
