Résumé anglais The Role of the Ombudsman in Finland. The Parliamentary Ombudsman established in 1919, was influenced by the Swedish model. It is in charge of legal control, which mainly consists in investigating complaints made by citizens, inquiries on his own initiative, and inspections in closed institutions like prisons, psychiatric hospitals, police and armed forces units. In case of illegal action, the strongest weapon of the Ombudsman is prosecution, but he most commonly provides for critical comments. He also plays and active role in human rights protection and in legislative reform.
