Complaints about Department of Agriculture fall by more than half
Ombudsman Ger Deering said 4,004 complaints were received by his office — a 17% increase on 2020.
The Department of Agriculture was the fourth most complained about public body last year. However, it was one of just three to see a reduction in the number of complaints.
The latest annual report published by the Ombudsman revealed it received 77 complaints about the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine in 2021, fewer than half of the 163 made in 2020.
