DÉFENSEUR DES DROITS (ANCIENNEMENT MÉDIATEUR DE LA RÉPUBLIQUE)

Who has never encountered a problem with an administration? Inversion of statements of EDF or GDF meters resulting in an astronomical note, reimbursement refused by Social Security, it may happen that relations with these bodies take a kafkaiens turn. When dialogue becomes deaf, we must think about turning to the Defender of Rights, often of a formidable effectiveness. This forum has existed since 1973 and a representative is present in each prefecture. The delegate of the Rights Defender of your department may also intervene in cases of litigation with local authorities (Mairie, regional council or general council), violations of the rights of the child, discrimination and breaches of the ethics of a security profession. This remedy is free. There are some instances of figures in which the Defender of Rights cannot intervene, particularly in cases of judicial decisions.
