The expression “Defender of Rights” was used by Gracchus Babeuf in the subtitle of his newspaper Le Tribun du peuple from 1795: “The Defender of Human Rights”.
In 2007, the Reflection and Proposal Committee on the Modernization and Rebalancing of Institutions , known as the “Balladur Committee”, proposed the creation of a “Defender of Fundamental Rights” to replace the Mediator of the Republic , an institution created in 1973 but which is not mentioned by the Constitution . According to the report, the Defender of Fundamental Rights, inspired by the Defender of the People in Spain , should be appointed by the National Assembly.
Responsibilitiesedit
