Abstract

This paper discusses the independence and accountability of the Ombudsman of the Republic of Indonesia (ORI) in carrying out their duties regarding potential intervention from the People’s Representative Council (DPR). A method is a qualitative approach, with library research data collection techniques and data analysis techniques through qualitative analytical descriptive techniques. Based on an assessment through the Instrument Institutional design and governance, Actual autonomy in exercising its mandate from the Westminster Foundation For Democracy (WFD), there are several assessments of independence and low accountability, namely on: (1) sufficiency of financial resources for performing its functions; (2) the extent of autonomy to generate its financial revenues; (3) security and stability of the budget during the past three years; and (4) stability of staff and extent of staff turn-over. In the future, ORI must improve several low scores on independence and accountability with its institutional relationship with the DPR.
