Salman Faruqui Wednesday offered to conduct joint study with the Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI) in case of persistent complaints against a government department for identifying issues, which required resolution.

Faruqui was addressing the FPCCI members at their Secretariat here, said a press release. The Ombudsman said that the Ombudsman Forum was available to the Federation where parties could be brought together to discuss and resolve issues being faced by the Federation.

He said that as a result of MoU signed between FPCCI and Ombudsman Secretariat five grievance commissioners had been designated who would be listening to complaints and decide cases at the Federation offices at all important centers of the country.

He said the institution of Ombudsman was making all efforts to resolve public complaints so that the matters do not land at formal courts which may involve long litigation. FPCCI President Zubair F Tufail welcoming the Ombudsman said the people were getting swift justice against maladministration of the government departments from the Ombudsman forum.

In view of the credible performance of the Institution, public confidence has tremendously increased in the Institution, he said.
