    # Northern Ireland Public Services Ombudsman

    NIPSO publishes the external complaint route selected for the
    [Northern Ireland context](../jurisdictions/northern-ireland.md). Its observed
    guidance says to complain directly to the body, complete that process and
    obtain a final response before approaching NIPSO. Current scope and acceptance
    must still be checked.
