    - Proposal of the Ombudsman for the completion of the process for establishing public space networks
    Following a series of complaints related to the characterisation of roads and the ineffective outcome of such cases, the Ombudsman recorded the main issues identified with regard to: a) lawfulness of building permits related to the lack of public space networks within city boundaries not having City Plan and b) the subsequent illegal occupation of public space. The Ombudsman, with its intervention to the Ministry of Environment and the Decentralised Administrations, called for the immediate processing of actions in cooperation with the competent departments of the local authorities. The purpose was to examine the possibility of legislating on the obligation of municipalities to define the public space networks without delay, giving an effective solution to this legislative malfunction constituting maladministration. The Authority pointed out that this legislation will significantly release the burden of a number of difficult cases pending before courts or the administrative bodies. However, despite the Ombudsman’s intervention, the issue has not been resolved and a new complaint has been filed in 2016.

    - Ombudsman’s proposal for amendment of the PPC arrears settlement programme (Public Power Corporation)
    Citizens appealed to the Ombudsman requesting inclusion in the PPC arrears settlement programme, which had been under way since April of 2016. In particular, they protested against the rejection of their application for inclusion in the 36-instalment settlement, because of previous power supply discontinuation. The Ombudsman addressed the PPC asking that customers, who already had a settlement of their overdue obligations under the previous conditions, be able to benefit from the recent more favourable terms, while stressing that it is important to give equal opportunities to customers who fulfil the same criteria. The PPC failed to respond to the Ombudsman’s document, although the settlement programme was extended till the end of the year. However, the PPC has announced a new settlement programme for 2017
