## Resource

The Ombudsman for Childrens Office (OCO) released their annual report, revealing a surge in complex complaints involving multiple agencies. Education issues topped the list, accounting for 31% of complaints, followed by Tusla and health services. The OCO also engaged with over 2500 children through rights education workshops. Three percent of complaints related to accommodation centers for asylum seekers, citing living conditions and complaint handling issues. Housing complaints, mainly regarding suitable housing for children with disabilities and long waiting lists, accounted for 6% of complaints. The OCO is advocating for full incorporation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child into Irish law, seizing Irelands EU presidency opportunity to lead on childrens rights.
