Summary/Abstract: The Ombudsman of The Republic of Bulgaria is a constitutional figure whose main field is the protection of human rights. Its basic characteristic is independence when investigating cases of bad administration. It has limited powers to start a procedure before Constitutional Court concerning human rights. A future revision of The Constitution can change this to achieve greater protection of human rights.
