1998年《人权法》提出了一个解决法律的争端的全新法律的工具。《人权法》的全部效力是可以肯定的，因为2000年4月以来的许多案件在《人权法》颁布之前，如果使用先前存在的法律原则，很可能取得大致相同的结果。然而，不管是好是坏，很少有人会反对这样一个结论，即《人权法案》改变了律师和法院解决法律的争端的方式。这篇文章甚至不会开始试图增加关于人权法案和法院的文献财富。然而，它将审查要求公共部门监察员（监察员）在多大程度上考虑到这一法律领域的事态发展。为此，报告将首先提出一个论点，即监察员在解决其调查问题时完全有能力考虑人权因素，其次分析卫生服务监察员和地方政府监察员最近的一项联合调查。这项调查涉及一名有严重学习困难的年轻人在护理院接受照顾时，其人权受到了可以说是重大的侵犯。这就是说，学术界的学者，特别是律师，应该更加了解目前正在促进《人权法》所要求的人权文化的其他领域。
The Human Rights Act 1998 (HRA) introduced a radical new legal tool with which to resolve legal disputes. The full extent of the Act’s effect is arguable, as many cases since April 2000 might well have secured much the same result prior to the HRA by using pre-existing principles of law. Nevertheless, for better or worse, few would argue against the conclusion that the HRA has changed the manner in which lawyers and the courts have approached the resolution of legal disputes. This article will not even begin to attempt to add to the wealth of literature on the HRA and the courts. It will, however, review the extent to which the public sector ombudsmen (the Ombudsmen) have been required to take on board developments in this area of the law. It will do this first by presenting an argument that the Ombudsmen are well placed to consider human rights factors when resolving their investigations and, second, by analysing a recent joint investigation of the Health Services Ombudsman (HSO) and the Local Government Ombudsman (LGO). This investigation concerned an arguably significant breach of the human rights of a young man with severe learning difficulties while he was being cared for at a care home.Underlying this argument as to the role of the ombudsman, a further observation is also being put forward in this article. This is that academic scholars, particularly lawyers, should be much more aware of the alternative arenas within which the human rights culture required by the HRA is currently being promoted.
