A. lack of adequate resources
B. its inability to restrain bureaucratic excesses
C. lack of clear-cut mandate
D. lack of executive power to enforce decisions
Correct Answer:
Option D – lack of executive power to enforce decisions

A major shortcoming of the Ombudsman is lack of executive power to enforce decisions.
One of the limitations of the powers of the Ombudsman is that it has no powers of the enforcement of its investigations and decisions it has taken. It can only investigate and recommend.
