Box ‎4.2. The services of the Swedish ombudsman, an IGAI with multiple missions

The Swedish ombudsman has four areas of responsibility that correspond to four delegated mediator institutions. For the preparation of cases that arise from complaints or are initiated by the Ombudsmen and in connection with consultation documents regarding proposed legislation, the Ombudsmen are assisted by a Head of Secretariat and supervisory departments consisting of Heads of Division, Senior Legal Advisors and Legal Advisors. Each supervisory department has its own bureau to deal with its cases.

To carry out the tasks incumbent on a national preventive mechanism pursuant to the Optional Protocol of 18 December 2002 to the Convention against Torture and other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (OPCAT), the Parliamentary Ombudsmen are assisted by a special unit, the OPCAT unit. This comprises a Head of Unit and Legal Advisors.

The Chief Parliamentary Ombudsman is assisted by an administrative department that comprises a unit for human resources, finance, premises and IT issues, a unit for registration and archives as well as a Public Relations Manager and an International Coordinating Director. The unit for human resources, finance, premises and IT issues is headed by the administrative director. This unit employs staff for financial and human resources management, administrative assistants and cleaning staff.

The unit for registration and archives is headed by the Head of Division responsible for registration and the archives. This unit employs a chief registrar, registrars and receptionists.
