SUMMARY OF THE PARLIAMENTARY OMBUDSMEN’S CONCLUSIONS ning stated that the inmates and the agency can be seen as depending on one another in order to achieve the best results in the efforts that should be made to prevent the spread of infection. Such cooperation must be based on a sense of mutual trust that the parties concerned are taking the necessary measures. An important part of this, in the opinion of the Chief Parliamentary Ombudsman, is that inmates feel confident that the agency is doing what it can to protect them against any possible infection. One possible way to provide the inmates with accurate information is for the agencies to use the information material developed, for example, by the Public Health Agency of Sweden. Parliamentary Ombudsman Thomas Norling pointed out that individual agencies, as a rule, need to supplement this general material with information concerning the consequences of the outbreak of the disease in their own activities. – 65 – 8
