Raising awareness and access in the Mid West
08 April 2024 The Ombudsman raises awareness and accessibility in the Mid West Region, 6 to 8 May.
The Energy and Water Ombudsman will be visiting the Mid West Region from 6 to 8 May as part of our Regional Awareness and Accessibility Program.
Regional Western Australia is absolutely central to all of Australia’s social and economic interests, making engagement with those living and working in regional Western Australia, and in particular Aboriginal Western Australians, of critical importance.
To ensure that our visit is as helpful as possible to Aboriginal Western Australians and those living and working regionally, we have coordinated with the following agencies to join us on the visit:
- Ombudsman Western Australia
- Health and Disability Services Complaints Office
- Equal Opportunity Commission
- Consumer Protection
- Australian Financial Complaints Authority
The Program includes drop-in sessions where members of the public can bring their complaints, meetings with the Aboriginal community, and visits and liaison with public authorities and community organisations.
