Formed in 1980, the Organisation of News Ombudsmen is a not-for-profit corporation with an international membership of active and associate members. It maintains contact with news ombudsmen worldwide and organises annual conferences. Stephen Pritchard, Readers' Editor of the Observer newspaper at the time of the Inquiry, gave evidence. He put the case for newspapers appointing readers' editors to act as a fast first-tier form of regulation, with a Press Complaints body acting as a second.
